I know that November is a long way off, but this is one thing we can plan for.

Northumbria Blood Bikes
Northumbria Blood Bikes visit Powburn
Last night (11 Sep 2018), Hedgeley Women’s Institute had a visit and talk from a representative of Northumbria Blood Bikes.
Several members were surprised to learn that Northumbria Blood Bikes is a purely voluntary organisation that relies solely on charitable donations to carry out its work.

Queen’s 90th Birthday Celebration
Hedgeley Women’s Institute
Hedgeley WI celebrated the Queen’s 90th Birthday by organising a Tea in the Garden, planned for Saturday 23 April 2016. As it happened, the weather was poor on Saturday so the venue was changed to the Breamish Hall.
Several members of the local community came together to celebrate.
There was plenty of good home-made food available, including sandwiches, cakes, biscuits and Pimm’s.
Christmas Crafts success
Christmas Crafts success…and Santa too!
The Christmas Crafts and Santa event that took place in the Breamish Hall on Saturday 28 November 2015 was a great success.
This is an annual event in Powburn and more people than ever attended this year. In fact, it was so successful that £490.00 was raised for good causes.
As usual, there were a number of Christmas crafts stalls and the light lunch of soup and bread roll, with a lovely cup of tea or coffee went down very well.
Great garden tea 2015!
What a great garden tea!
Thanks to the hard work of everyone who organised the Tea in the Garden event that took place yesterday I, for one, woke up this morning with a smile on my face.
What a wonderful time we had in Powburn’s Community Garden yesterday afternoon. Having had a few drops of rain in the morning, the sun came out almost on cue at 3 o’ clock, jumpers came off, and…the party began!
