Each month I'll be sharing a few of the more intimate & community events going on throughout the region, giving them their own platform, rather than adding them at the bottom of an article about larger events. These events are vital to many charities and local groups to raise essential funds or to promote community awareness and are the heart and soul of our city and wider county. So if you would like me to share your event please do get in touch.
