Chatty Cafe Coronation Celebration

Our Chatty Cafe is shaping-up nicely!
It developed from our Memory Cafe Project supported by the Humber Museums Partnership and is now an established twice-monthly event adjacent to our coffee shop The Old School Canteen.
Just look at the joy we had celebrating the coronation in May!

Everyone is welcome to come along on the first Thursday each month to meet and chat with Museum volunteers and others, and on the third Thursday when we choose an optional topic to help stimulate conversation and reminisce. Both sessions run from 2p – 4pm. They’re free and booking is not required – just come along if the mood takes you.
We’ll be joined by Humber & Wolds Rural Action on Thursday 20 July to hear about their work now that they’re based at Wilderspin. But, before then, on Thursday 6 July, all are welcome to drop in for a chat “without an agenda” – between 2pm and 4pm.

Gardening Spring Tidy

We’re having a Spring Tidy in the Playground Garden and around the site on Wednesday 3rd May between 10am and 2pm.  Many of our volunteers will be lending a hand so it would be a great opportunity for prospective helpers to come along and see what’s involved as well as find out about our other volunteering opportunities.
