A little snippet of keeping up morale as the 18 hour walk for continued into the evening. These brave walkers have been walking since sunrise (approximately 4am) and were still smiling as dusk started to arrive. They are pushing through their final hour as we speak. Well done to everyone involved, particularly the wonderful Andrea whose organisation and hosting skills never fail to amaze us!!!!

Did you know there’s a whole street under the Burnley Mechanics Theatre?! That’s crazy!!!!
An amazing piece of history right under our feet!

We are so proud to perform at such an amazing venue and in just 2.5 months we will be back there to begin rehearsals for our 48th year as a pantomime society with our production of 🫘 Jack and the Beanstalk! 🫘

We can’t wait to get started on Alex Jackson’s fabulous script, under the co-direction of Kayleigh Hindle and Angela Foulds! Roll on September!
