June 2017

A WARM WELCOME to our guests from Lowestoft on Friday 2nd June as
we commemorate the historic evacuation of 600 children from Lowestoft to
Glossop on 2nd June 1940. A plaque will be unveiled and a new display about
the evacuation, in our Poetry Platform case, has been created by
Paul Marsh. Kathleen Barber’s poem about her experiences will be read out at
the event. You are welcome to join us! Our thanks to Simon Brooks, Northern
Line Manager, and Vicky Cropper Northern’s Community and Sustainability
Manager for their support of this event.

The non-operational electronic information screen to the left of the display on
the station platform is beyond repair. Northern is aware of the issue and they intend
to replace it with a modern, flat screen version in the near future.

There is a Folk Train on Thursday 22nd June with THE HAYES SISTERS
