Events Programme

The new fashion season is upon us and you are warmly invited to attend Dawn Ledgard’s Autumn 2018 Clothes Sale on Wednesday 24th October. These popular seasonal sales offer a good value opportunity to buy from an extensive range of beautiful designer clothing, jewellery and accessories.

As usual, this sale will be held at the Hadley Wood Association Centre (behind the Tennis Club at 7 Crescent East). As past customers know, buying here is much more convenient than a trip into the West End. It is also much more enjoyable and reliable than buying online. Why not bring a friend and take a break to chat over coffee?

Donations of £1 at the door, plus commission on sales, will be given to Cherry Lodge Cancer Care to help fund our valuable services for people affected by cancer.

Join in the festivities and help Summer Soulstice mark the 5th anniversary of Brews and Soul at Barnet’s Black Horse pub on Saturday 27th October 2018, from 7.30pm until 1am.

With Soulful Beats from regular DJs Double-J and Jester Groove plus special guest Frostie.

As always the Black Horse staff will be offering a wide selection of cask beers along with a great wine list and an ever-changing choice of craft beers, including the now famous Soul Brew.

Visit the Summer Soulstice website for full details. Buy Birthday Brews tickets online or in person direct from the venue. Tickets cost £5 in advance, plus a limited number of £10 tickets on the night (unless previously sold out).

A percentage of the proceeds from Birthday Brews will go towards costs for next year’s Summer Soulstice festival to be held on Saturday 22nd June 2019.
