Tuesdays and Wednesdays mean one thing… a walk and a coffee ☕🚶‍♀️

We recently visited House of Foliage in Redcar for one of our Women’s Walk ’N’ Talk group.

The service offers relaxed, planned walks for women of all abilities, taken at a comfortable, leisurely pace. It’s a chance to move your body, enjoy the outdoors, and connect with others in a welcoming, supportive space.

Whether you’re looking to boost your wellbeing, get a little more active, or simply enjoy good conversation and company, you’ll be warmly welcomed.

Walking together, talking together, and taking time for you 💛

We had Holly the artist visit our Carlin How session last week making a light sculpture for the Village of Light at Loftus.
Why not pop over tonight or tomorrow night to see the children’s creation

✨ Village of Light returns; let’s ✨
Over two March evenings Coronation Park will be transformed into an illuminated lantern village created by local people working with handpicked artists, alongside light art, storytelling and family friendly creative fun. All FREE to enjoy – just drop in!
And as dusk falls across Friday 6 and Saturday 7 March, wander through a trail of lanterns inspired by the natural landscape, wildlife and seasonal rhythms of the coast. You might spot familiar birds, imagined creatures or glowing forms that seem to appear only once night settles in.
Each evening will include:
📖 Storytelling sessions that bring imagination to life – cosy, captivating tales that will delight children and grown-ups alike.
🎪 Roll Up, Roll Up by Hannah Fox – get ready to let your imagination run away with the story book circus.
🐦 Loved Ones by Lou Chapelle - an illuminated installation of beautiful cheeky holographic robins playfully brightening up the park.
🎨 Drop-in creative workshops with artists - create light-inspired creations to take home.
💡And the star of the show; a Loftus lantern village brought to life by local schools, families and community groups, all working alongside brilliant artists to create glowing, handmade lanterns for the event.
Village of Light is free and open to all ages.
📅 Friday 6 and Saturday 7 March
⏰ 6pm-9pm
📍 Coronation Park, Loftus
🆓 FREE
💫 No tickets – just drop in!
Wrap up warm, take your time, and enjoy a relaxed winter (but very nearly Spring) evening of light, imagination and community in the heart of Loftus. 🌠
Village of Light is organised by Stellar Creates and supported by Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council, Borderlands Creative People & Places and North York Moors National Park.

We had the pleasure of welcoming Ben from Social Allies to Linking Routes at the beginning of February!

We discussed our exciting rebrand and the new creative direction we're heading in.

It's been inspiring to collaborate with people who truly understand our mission and values. We can't wait to share even more of what we've been working on 🤝
