As the UK Government rolls out its ‘roadmap’ to ease lockdown in England, the Breamish Hall in Powburn is re-opening its doors. This is good news for everyone!
A whole range of regular activities and one-off events are being planned.
The Ingram Show Committee regrets that, owing to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Ingram Show & Sports scheduled to take place on Saturday 11 September 2021 has been cancelled.
We have today (5 March 2021) received the following Press Release from ACRE.
National charity, Action with Communities in Rural England (ACRE) has issued new information to help village halls make sense of the latest announcements about the lifting of national lockdown restrictions.
Contrary to the government’s announcement on 22 February 2021, village halls will not be able to reopen after Easter, except for a small number of permitted activities.
It is with regret that the Powburn Show Committee announced yesterday (28 January 2021) that the Powburn Show scheduled to take place on 7 August 2021 has been cancelled owing to uncertainties related to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
The Covid-19 vaccination programme is now being rolled out for high priority groups. On completion, other groups will be offered the vaccine.
Well…it’s been quite a year, hasn’t it? It’s been kind of:
Mmm…the list goes on.
We have today received some helpful guidance information from Ruth Armstrong, Locality Coordinator North Northumberland (part of Northumberland County Council’s ‘Northumberland Communities Together’). It focuses on Christmas Bubbles, the local Tier System, so-called ‘winter guidance’ and more.
We are sure that members of the local community will recognise the current unusual circumstances surrounding the possibility of commemorating Remembrance Sunday this year. While the UK Government has now published guidance (published 3 Nov 2020), the required actions and responsibilities mean that there is insufficient time to organise a public event. However, we do not want to let this commemoration pass us by and we want to assure you that the fallen of the Breamish Valley are never forgotten. Consequently, a wreath will be laid by May Wilson BEM on behalf of the local community.
