Rainy Day Picks This Weekend

11โ€“12 July Near Istead Rise

Not every listing gets a golden ticket

We check the usual frankly silly number of local websites, then look for events that feel rainy-day friendly: cinemas, theatres, talks, workshops, galleries, concerts, cosy venues, and anything less likely to involve standing in a muddy field making brave weather noises.

Happening Saturday 11 July to Sunday 12 July.
Picked for Istead Rise, not somewhere halfway across the county.
Only Local Gems and Curated venues make the cut, because standards are still a thing.
Listings with proper descriptions get bumped up the list. Three words and a shrug will not do.

Sunday Special1

Sunday Special

at St Mary's Church

This is our group for children aged between 3 years and 11 years. We meet on the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th Sundays of the month, starting in the Church then moving over to the the hall for a time of teaching through stories and craft. We then return to the Church for Communion or the end of the service. We would love for your little ones to join us and learn more of the stories of Jesus.
