This year’s Big Green Day was all about sustainability through recycling, upcycling, and reuse. Over 100 people came along with plants, books, clothes, recipes and seeds to swop and have a good time.
Nine other “Green,” partners also were in attendance to show and highlight the great work being done by the community to enhance, protect and enlighten issues relating to nature.

Rowntree Trust have funded a series of art/craft sessions for over 21’s.
Each week hosts a different artist. See poster for full details.
We plan to keep it informal over a hot or cold drink, a biscuit or two and maybe even a slice of cake.
The idea is to have board games and cards available for group play. Also the opportunity to learn new card games like bridge or cribbage. Have an unfinished craft that you would like to finish or need some help then bring it along and we will try to assist.
Aimed at singles, couples or mixed groups. Bring a friend or two.
