Join us this Saturday for our annual Community Day! 🎈

Located at Pendleside Hospice, from 1-4pm.

There's so much fun to be had for all the family, including soft play, a teddy tombola, food and craft stalls, and so much more!

Plus, it's a great opportunity to find out about Pendleside's services and how you can get involved in volunteering and other community groups.

‼️ Please note, there will be no access to parking on the Hospice grounds, except for disability access. If you are travelling by car, please park on or just off the main road.

🚗 For those attending the Carer's Group in the morning, please park on the gravel car park, to the right, next to the Donation Centre, thank you! 😊

With unhealthy lifestyles and poor diet contributing to more young people in their 30s being diagnosed with high blood pressure, this year’s Know Your Numbers! week is urging all adults (of all ages) to make the time to check their blood pressure.

Find out how to get checked, understand what your numbers mean and how to manage your risk. Visit your local pharmacy.

Baby Loss = so many missed milestones.
Thinking of all those parents whose children should be starting school this year.

We understand how painful it can be to see all the photos on social media of children starting or returning to school. Be kind to yourself, step away from social media for a few days to give yourself some breathing space.

Have you visited any of our Family Hubs or Family Centres recently, or been to any of our summer events? If so, please could you spare a couple of minutes to fill out a really quick online survey?

As part of our continuous improvement process, we are always looking for feedback on what we are getting right, what we could do better, and whether there is something that our Pendle families want that we are not currently providing. All feedback will be very much appreciated. You can find our feedback form at the link below:-

Tell us about your local playgroups!

As it's a new term, we are updating our list of low/no cost Church and community-run playgroups in Pendle. We know that things can change regularly and we would hate to miss one or (even worse) have someone go along to one that is no longer running.

If you run or regularly attend a playgroup in Pendle, we would love to hear about it and promote it for you. Please send us a message or drop a comment below with as much information as possible, and we will add it to our list. We're especially interested in areas where we haven't found much on, such as Whitefield, Waterside, or some of the outlying villages like Higham and Blacko.

Thank you so much in advance - we really want to help Pendle families to find their village
