Age Concern is starting a new social group in Darley which will look at the history of the local area. To launch the project a coffee morning is to be held on 21st Feb.

 

Age Concern North Yorkshire in Ripon is delighted to have the opportunity to form a new Local History Group, charting the changes in the village and surrounding area over the years.

 

We would love to meet up with local people to chat about how life  used to be  - the good times and the bad times - and would welcome photos, tape recordings, art work or any other memorabilia that people have. We hope the Group would provide a chance for people to share reminiscences what they miss the most and how they were affected. We would like to include Blubberhouses, Fewston and Summerbridge areas.

 

Ultimately, we hope to produce a Collage based on our findings, which would hang in Christ Church Community Centre.

 

We are holding a Coffee Morning in the Centre on Thursday 21 Feb between 10.30am and 12 noon to share ideas and to plan a way forward. Everyone is warmly invited to attend.
