Look Ahead in the North 2023

Look Ahead in the North is the annual residential weekend run by Headway at an activity centre in the Kielder Forest.  The dates for Look Ahead in the North 2023 are 3rd – 5th March.

The event will take place at Calvert Kielder and is anticipated to follow a format similar to that of previous years.  Previously the following activities have been available

• Quiz

The subsidised cost for Headway North Cumbria members, carers and support workers to attend the weekend will be £90 per person.

Headway North Cumbria has received an initial allocation of 9 places though additional places may become available in due course.   From those members that expressed an interest in participating a group of 9 have been selected to go – priority was given to those that had not previously attended a LAN.  Those successful applicants have completed a booking form and paid a £30 deposit to secure their place.  The balance of £60 will be due in early 2023.   A reserve list is being maintained in the event that additional places become available.
