A very fashionable fundraiser

jane young fashion showIt’s time to start thinking about shopping for spring and summer outfits so, if you’re looking for ideas, here’s an event that will give you plenty!

On Monday 4 April, Ann et Vin will be hosting the Jane Young Charity Fashion Show, with proceeds going to Beaumond House Community Hospice.

Enjoy a drink and some cake as the latest collections are modelled in the Courtyard Wine Bar and Wine Shop on Castlegate in Newark. Whether you’re planning ahead for a spring wedding, thinking about a summer holiday or just want to add a little extra something to your existing wardrobe, you’re sure to find inspiration here…

Choose from two separate shows

  • 11am with coffee and cake
  • 2pm with tea and cake

Tickets are £15 each and available from Jane Young on Chain Lane – but places are limited to just 45 for each show, so don’t wait too long to call in and get yours!

In it for the long run

bilsthorpe ladies rcIt’s back to Fabulous After 40 on this week’s show with guests Cathie Babbington and Jenni Wallis from the Bilsthorpe Ladies Running Club.

Join June and Sue as they find out how membership of this ladies-only Run England club has grown from single figures to 60-plus over the last five years and how they won the Active4Today Club of the Year Award for 2015.

Not to mention just what it is that gets local ladies of all ages, shapes and sizes out pounding the streets of Bilsthorpe every week…

Running is the greatest metaphor for life, because you get out of it what you put into it – Oprah Winfrey

They’ll have news too of their inaugural community run in April and details of how listeners living in or around Bilsthorpe can join the club that’s known locally as the rabble!

Tune in or listen online between 10am and 12 noon on Sunday for what promises to be an entertaining interview – and don’t forget, there’ll be another fantastic Girls Around Town giveaway during the show, with a chance to win two more tickets to the Kelham Hall Inspire Day on Thursday 17 March.
