We're back!!

After a summer break, The Blether returns with your (semi) regular update on what's happening at The Gorebridge Beacon and beyond. We're calling this Season 2 now...

This time, Derek and Ellie talk to local author Gillian Lee Gibson about her writing career, we take another trip down memory lane with 'Gorebridge Yesterdays', and update you on all the events we have planned at The Beacon, including our spooky Halloween Party!

And special thanks to Stella Henderson for editing support.

We're back for another special episode of the Beacon Blether, your guide to what's happening in Gorebridge.

This time, it's a health and wellbeing special! We talk to some of the area's foremost health/fitness/wellbeing practitioners and hear what they can offer to those of us looking to get fitter, eat more healthily, or who just want to get out of the house and be active while making new friends. From Judo to Zumba, Karate to fitness training, there's something for everyone in Gorebridge.

It's another special edition of the Beacon Blether podcast!

This time, to mark the 5th anniversary of the Covid lockdown in the UK, we gathered together some of Gorebridge's finest to reminisce about the village's response to the pandemic, and how they coped both professionally and personally with the restrictions. We'll hear how The Beacon organised food deliveries to the community, how local organisations worked together, some amusing lockdown tales, and hear what they would do if a similar pandemic was to happen again (perish the thought!).
