What's on in Long Acre

Tyne & Wear, England

From farmers' markets to craft fairs that'll actually have something you want to buy — Long Acre knows how to put on a do. We're talking proper local events here: quiz nights that get genuinely competitive, coffee mornings that serve actual decent coffee (not the instant stuff), and village fêtes that are surprisingly well organised. No stadium concerts or festivals that cost a week's wages, just the good stuff happening in village halls, community centres, and that one pub everyone knows about. We're here to make sure you don't miss any of it.

Men’s Pie Club

Men’s Pie Club It’s not just about the pies. It’s about the guys making the pies. We’re here for a chat just as much as a scran. So, it doesn’t matter if you’re a baking-beginner or a pastry-perfectionist, Men’s Pie Club is where you can come to get stuff off your chest and put something great in your belly. At the weekly clubs you can get stuck in and make your own delicious pie. We even supply all the ingredients and know-how you need, with a Men’s Pie Club organiser always on hand to help – usually our fantastic Lead Pie Men, who keep things ticking over. Sometimes there’s a few of us, sometimes there’s ten of us. But there’s always a warm welcome and a hot stove. So, the only thing you need to bring is a little bit of enthusiasm. After that, it’s all about meeting other guys from your local area, having a laugh, and getting stuck into some tasty pies. ​ ​ Why should I come? Because life isn’t always easy, but making pies is. Getting together for a pie and a chat is the perfect way for us guys to get out of the house and look after our physical and mental health. If we were using fancy terms, we’d say it’s about tackling isolation and improving social connectedness. And it is. But it’s also just about baking pies and making friends. Who runs men’s pie club? Men’s Pie Club is organised by Newcastle-based social enterprise Food Nation, with funding from Movember.
