Look Ahead in the North – 22-24 March 2019

posted in: Uncategorised | 0

Look Ahead in the North is an annual residential weekend at The Calvert Trust, Kielder Forest.  This year it was held over the period 22-24 March 2019 and was blessed with good weather rather than the somewhat changeable weather of last year.

A total of 13 people from Headway North Cumbria attended and joined with representatives from other Headway groups and branches from around the country.  A great time was had at a well organised event which included a large number of activities suitable for those with a wide range of abilities.  A list of activities along with some photographs and short videos of the Headway North Cumbria contingent along with friends from Headway South Cumbria and Headway Tyneside is shown below:
