Carver Fields Open Day-Sunday 8th November

Food Works will be hosting another Open Day at Carver Fields on Sunday 8th November, as part of their ongoing community programme. The event runs from 11:00am to 2:00pm at Carver Fields, S10 5PJ.

Visitors can enjoy refreshments, meet the Food Works team, and hear about the food‑growing and community initiatives planned for the site. It’s a great chance for local residents to get involved, share ideas, and discuss what the community would like to see developed there. (If you’re able, please bring your own spade / rake / wheelbarrow – we will have a few to use, but could always do with more!)

To learn more about the vision behind Food Works’ new community growing space in Crosspool, take a look at the article in Now Then magazine.

It’s a Wonderful Life! A Live Radio Play

Ladies and gentlemen, Northern Lights Theatre invites you to tune in for a very special Christmas broadcast

This festive season, step back into the golden age of radio with It’s a Wonderful Life! A Live Radio Play, adapted by Anthony E. Palermo from the much-loved Christmas classic.

On Christmas Eve, George Bailey finds himself overwhelmed and struggling to see a way forward. When a remarkable guardian angel appears, George is given the extraordinary opportunity to discover what the world might have been like had he never existed. What follows is a heart-warming and uplifting story about hope, friendship, and the lasting impact that one ordinary person can have on the lives of others.

Presented as a live 1940s-style radio broadcast, this inventive production brings the beloved tale to life through the talents of a small ensemble cast, who portray dozens of characters while creating music and live sound effects before the audience’s eyes.

Clocks Go Back This Sunday

Don’t forget to put your clocks back by one hour, from 2am to 1am, this Sunday, 25th October.

This weekend, the clocks go back as we move from British Summer Time (BST) to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), signalling the end of daylight saving and the arrival of the winter months. While the change brings shorter days and longer evenings, it also offers the welcome bonus of an extra hour in bed on Sunday morning. It’s a gentle reminder that winter is on its way, giving us time to prepare for the season ahead and make the most of the cosy months to come.

The 2027 Crosspool Calendar is here!

Packed with beautiful photographs captured around our community, the 2027 calendar celebrates the people, places, and seasons that make Crosspool such a special place to live. More than just a calendar, it is a year-long reminder of local life and community spirit.

Every copy sold helps support activities, connect neighbours, and care for our local environment.

Pick up your copy for just £3 from GT News, Crosspool Pet Supplies, Enhance, Charisma or by emailing: crosspoolforum@gmail.com.
