In 2007 there was a break with tradition and the Guild Dinner was hosted by the Portsmouth District. The dinner was held at the Southwick Park Golf Club on Saturday April 21st 2007 and was attended by 76 members and visitors. The invited speakers, Cdr. Bill Harris and Rev. James Croft, were both well received.
As part of the Dinner day there was ringing at Southwick Church. A visit to Southwick House with an opportunity to see the D-Day maps was also arranged but some people just chose to visit the local brewery. All the events were well attended.
A small surplus of £8.09 was made.
