SUMMARY:Life Drawing with Jamie Frost (Mon Evening)
DESCRIPTION:This class takes place at the Sculpture Lounge Studios- home to a growing number of professional artists. Classes are led by Jamie Frost\, a figurative art specialist with a particular passion for drawing:\n\nDrawing is a very personal thing so it’s important to me that the atmosphere of my classes is welcoming and accepting. Small groups of people help each other to understand what they are doing\, regardless of experience\, whilst I provide a structure\, tuition\, and advice which can move things forward.\n\n\nMy sessions take into account the complete beginner but we also have plenty of more experienced artists involved. \n\nIn order to attend you just have to bring yourself and some enthusiasm. I provide drawing media and good quality cartridge papers. The studio is equipped with easels\, drawing boards and all the equipment you should need\n\nThe course structure includes regular lessons in formal drawing. Line\, tone\, perspective\, mark-making\, blending\, foreshortening\, portraiture and many other subjects are discussed. You will be introduced to the work of other artists and encouraged to experiment and express yourself.\n\nClasses run in ‘terms’ of varying length- please check the schedule carefully before booking. There’s an opportunity to catch up on missed sessions in any of my other weekly classes.\nRefreshments are also included

SUMMARY:Barre (Low impact full body workout) at Thongsbridge Tennis Club
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to a successful bid for National Lottery Community Funding\, we are proud to announce a new and exciting initiative\, supporting older people and the elderly within Thongsbridge and our neighbouring communities of Holmfirth\, New Mill and Wooldale.  \nWhatever the barriers may have been to date for these individuals participating in an active pastime – perhaps increased demands and challenges as a direct result of the cost-of-living crisis\, existing mobility issues\, disabilities\, mental health needs\, or even long-term illnesses – our welcoming team has developed the most accessible classes to encourage all to take part. \nOur classes will help rebuild confidence\, self-esteem\, and improve both mental and physical health\, combatting feelings of isolation and anxiety. The opportunity to build new relationships and friendships will ultimately provide a valuable support network as each is able to socially connect with others in the surrounding community. \nOur sessions are greatly subsidised and are available to non-members\, over the age of 60. They have been designed to rebuild strength\, improve mobility and essentially\, balance – ideal for those whose fear of falling is sometimes a barrier to getting out. All activity is low impact\, and no previous experience of sport\, fitness or movement classes is necessary\, our instructors work to the pace of each individual. \nInterested in gaining a little more independence and improving your quality of life in great company? Then contact us today for details of how to join in these welcoming sessions! \nClasses cost just £3\, which includes a coffee or tea in our Courtside Café – perfect for a social catch up afterwards! \n Barre Fridays 1.15pm-2pm \n\n\nBarre is a low impact full body workout that combines the fundamentals of Ballet and Pilates\, with each movement aimed at improving overall wellness and mobility in a safe and supportive environment. No experience is needed for this class as together we will ease into these exercises making sure everyone is comfortable and confident to bring out the best version of you!

SUMMARY:MUNICIPAL DREAMS - THE RISE AND FALL OF COUNCIL HOUSING at The Tech
DESCRIPTION:EcoHolmes are hosting a talk by John Boughton\, social historian\, on MUNICIPAL DREAMS – THE RISE AND FALL OF COUNCIL HOUSING on Wednesday 13th May 2026 in the Cafe Room at the Holmfirth Tech\, following on from our AGM. EcoHolmes supporters who are not Members are welcome to attend the AGM as guests at 7pm or to come along for the talk at 7.30pm. Refreshments will be available. \nJohn Boughton has written about the social\, political\, and architectural history of council housing in the United Kingdom. He explores how the ambition to provide decent housing for all citizens became a central part of British politics and then traces the subsequent decline and “stigmatisation” of those same public estates. He argues that the modern housing crisis stems from abandoning the “municipal dream” of good-quality state-provided homes and ties in historical policy failures to contemporary tragedies\, such as the Grenfell Tower fire\, illustrating the consequences of neglecting social housing safety and community. Originally born out of Boughton’s highly regarded blog of the same name\, the book is widely cited as essential reading for understanding Britain’s current housing challenges. \nJohn Boughton is the author of Municipal Dreams: the Rise and Fall of Council Housing (Verso\, 2018) and A History of Council Housing in 100 Estates (RIBA Books\, 2022). His blog Municipal Dreams – a record of local authority housing and reform across the country and in Europe – has been viewed 2.5 million times. He is an Honorary Senior Research Fellow at the School of Architecture of the University of Liverpool.
