There’s lots going on at the centre in the coming few weeks.
On Saturday 1st June, it’s the monthly litter pick and plant swap with our friends at Sapgate Gardens. And of course Thornton Library will be open too.
On Sunday 2nd June, join us for our Sunday Cinema for June, One Life.
The film is based on the true story of British humanitarian Nicholas Winton, the film alternates between following Anthony Hopkins as a 79-year old Winton reminiscing on his past, and Johnny Flynn as a 29-year old Winton attempting to help groups of Jewish children in German-occupied Czechoslovakia to hide and flee in 1938–39, just before the beginning of World War II. Helena Bonham Carter, Lena Olin, Romola Garai, Alex Sharp and Jonathan Pryce co-star in supporting roles. Doors open at 3.30 and the film starts at 3.45. Refreshments will be available before the film and during the interval. You can also buy a raffle ticket to get free entry to our July film.
The first Friday of the month is going to be a foodie Friday from 7th June. Our Red Umbrella nights are teaming up with the Rock & Heifer to host monthly Curry nights. It is £15pp and includes a starter and a main. For June, it is a choice of chicken tikka boti or a portion of onion bhajis served with salad and mint sauce. Chicken masala or chick pea and potato (vegan/vegetarian) served with rice and a mini naan. Please contact The Rock & Heifer or call into the centre to book your spot.
And finally, Saturday 8th & Sunday 9th June, is one of the best events in the Thornton social calendar, the Open Gardens. All the details on where to buy tickets are below.
We hope to see you at the Centre over the weeks.
