There are some exciting new businesses popping up locally. Have you discovered the Chalybeate Tea Room at Rock Park?

Audrey’s has launched their new Autumn collection – and I, for one, can’t wait to check it out!
There’s a packed programme at Wyeside this season, with a variety of cinema, live, and satellite performances. I’m especially looking forward to The Roses, Materialists, and Moments of Pleasure: The Music of Kate Bush.
As always, we’re proud to feature our trusted local suppliers, many of whom I’ve had the pleasure of working with recently during my move.
