It's been so long since we had an AGM we thought we'd make it proper and create a flyer for it. (well, at least recycle an old one)

📅 Date: Sunday 8th December
🕕 Time: 6.00-7.00pm (before the quiz!)
📍 Location: 1000 Trades in the Park

Come on down, meet the team, and see how you can help make the Shuffle even bigger and better. Whether you’re a seasoned volunteer or just Shuffle-curious, we’d LOVE* to see you there! 💬

**Particularly if you are organised, good at marketing and generally good at making stuff happen, oh and enthusiastic

13 years ago we hosted the incredible Alex Lanyon at the very first Bearwood Shuffle on the bandstand. So exciting to see Alex playing the Pyramid stage with Dua Lipa last night.
Bearwood boy done good! Go Alex! A proper inspiration for all of the 'woods struggling musicians! Keep on, keepin' on.

Hi Shufflers!

It's been a while, and we were hoping to bring you some good news about an upcoming event, but sadly, after being turned down recently for some funding, we just can't make it happen.

We haven't given up all hope of doing something in the future, we're still in contact with some brilliant local bands and the team is always willing to put the hours in, but without financial support we just can't cover the ever rising costs involved in putting on a big outdoor event.

Please do keep following this page, as it's the first place we'll post when we do have something awesome to tell you!

Keep shuffling!

The Friends Of Thimblemill Library welcome Christina Martin from Canada with her Americana pop rock sounds, plus local artist Simon O'Connell.
