Ceildh with Bald Mountain String Band in Aid of St Mary's Church

This ceilidh is supporting St Mary’s church in Threlkeld which has been at the centre of village life for many centuries. It was last refurbished 250 years ago. We want to celebrate this in style! However, now the church needs to be repaired and refreshed for the next couple of hundred years. We seek for the church to continue traditional and enlivened Christian worship eg. Messy church or dramatisations but also to be able to provide warmth and better hospitality to those using the church eg. School activities, mums and babies and social groups for older people and those living with difficulties . We are undertaking repairs and installing a new heating system (air source heat pump for sustainability) and insulation. There will also be provision of a toilet and kitchen and the removal of the centre pews to give a flexible space for activities. The profits from this ceilidh will go towards this project. Bald Mountain String Band started in the 60s as the Berkshire Tragedy, Peter and Chris, along with concertina and melodeon player, and clog dancer, Ian Dunmur, played together until Chris and Peter moved to the Lakes in 1987. They are now a family band, joined by daughter Jo and her husband Mick. Hence, Bald Mountain String Band was born.

Northern String Quartet

Members of the quartet are frequently invited to collaborate with some of the world’s most respected orchestras, including the BBC Philharmonic, London Symphony Orchestra, and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic. In addition to their classical credentials, the Northern String Quartet has gained recognition in the Candlelight & Fever String Quartets circuit, where they perform dynamic renditions of modern pop music across the UK. Their diverse portfolio includes high-profile performances at concerts, weddings, corporate events, and as sought-after session musicians in recording studios. The quartet is also a popular choice for supporting strings on UK artist tours, showcasing their adaptability and wide-ranging expertise. Notable recent performances include a prominent appearance at the AO Arena in Manchester for BBC One’s Big Night of Musicals 2025, a National Lottery Funded event, where they performed alongside a full orchestra to great acclaim. With a repertoire that spans both classical and contemporary genres, the Northern String Quartet remains at the forefront of the UK’s vibrant music scene, consistently delivering exceptional performances and contributing to the development of both live and recorded music. Join us for a classical concert by the Northern String Quartet at Threlkeld Village Hall on Thursday 3rd September at 7:30pm. The programme will be included here soon, but it is expected to include all of Vivaldi’s seasons plus some other pieces.

Illustrated Talk: Penrith2Kendal Arc Recovery Project

In May 2024, the Penrith2Kendal Arc project started its two-year development phase, providing staff resource to work up ambitious plans for land management, community engagement, access improvement, monitoring, funding and governance. These plans will be implemented over a 20-year delivery phase, which should commence Early 2027. During this development phase, managed through a partnership with Lowther Farming Partnership and Cumbria Connect , the project team is working with all 30+ farmers and landowners to explore options for large-scale, ambitious nature restoration that will enhance the condition and connectivity of a range of important habitats, including woodlands, wood pasture, rivers and floodplains, hay meadows and peatlands. Planning and consultation will also be carried out to assess whether Water Voles, Black Grouse, Pine Martens and a range of other missing species can be returned to the landscape. Covering more than 16,000 hectares, the Penrith to Kendal Arc project area covers multiple watersheds and habitats and supports a huge array of wildlife. Most of the project lies within the Lake District National Park, arguably England’s most spectacular and iconic landscape.

Top of the Wold by Mikron Theatre Company

Via Bempton, Bridlington, Hornsea and Howden, we explore a region barely noticed by the nation it feeds, eroded by the pounding North Sea, can a mobile library – with its complex web of rural stops (and somewhat erratic engine) – pull together the Riding’s finest yarns? From the rolling Wolds to the wild North Sea, discover a place where connection to the land is ingrained, culture is as organic as its produce, and the sea reminds us that we stand on the cliff-edge of a much bigger story. This laugh-out-loud quest through a patchwork of culture and community celebrates the forgotten, the resilient, and the wonderfully eccentric. Mikron Theatre Company in their 54th year of touring exceptional theatre in extraordinary places. They visit over 130 venues per year. In the summer they tour by narrowboat performing outdoors by the canal, in pubs, allotments, dry docks to name a few. In spring and autumn, they tour indoors in village halls, theatres, care homes and more. Threlkeld Village Hall at 7:30pm on Thursday 8th October 2026. Bar and Box Office from 6:45pm. Tickets £15 (under 18 £7.50) from Threlkeld Village Hall Coffee Shop or on-line here (by debit or credit cards). TICKETS BOUGHT ON-LINE ARE COLLECTED ON THE NIGHT FROM THE BOX OFFICE.
