READING the article about organiser Sue Lister standing down from the 50+ Festival, the question arises about where we are going to find someone with such energy (The Press, September 6).

Sue has such a great deal of energy, for anyone taking over she will be a very difficult act to follow. The drive she has to inspire is a gift.

We seem to be losing so many of our stalwarts, following on from Cllr Johnny Hayes.

Finding replacements might not be that easy these days, for one reason or another.

Well done to Sue for past festivals.
