The next lunchtime concert at the Methodist Centre, Wednesday 18th September at 12.15, features concert pianist, Rob Fleming.
This is the last of his three piano recitals this year, and the programme for this concert consists of three pieces composed by English Composer, Sir Arnold Bax.
Bax travelled and studied in Eastern Europe and Russia early last century, consequently his music is a fascinating blend of English, Irish folk and Russian influence.
A Koha will go to a local charity.

Do you know how to give way in an emergency? 🚨

We’re here to remind you about what to do when you see, or hear, an emergency services vehicle responding under lights and sirens. When seconds count, it can save lives.

We’ve had recent examples where drivers completely ignore the Police vehicle behind them. Other drivers slow right down without safely pulling over, and delay Police from responding to emergency situations. Please help us by allowing our team to get to those in need, so we can save lives.

Top tips when an emergency services vehicle approaches with lights and sirens:
🚑 You are required by law to pull to the side of the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
🚔 If the lights and siren of the Police vehicle continue past you, you can resume your journey.
🚒 Make sure you check the road is clear before moving on.
