With so much talk about airline disruption and summer holidays being up in the air, why not stay a little closer to home this year and discover the beauty right on your doorstep?
The Yorkshire Dales offer breathtaking scenery, peaceful escapes, and plenty to see and do. From the charming market town of Skipton to the elegant spa town of Harrogate and the riverside beauty of Ilkley, everything is just a short drive away.
Enjoy family days out at Billy Bob’s Ice Cream Parlour, explore the historic Bolton Abbey Priory, or simply soak up the stunning countryside with walks, picnics, and fresh Yorkshire air.
When you stay with The Beamsley Project Charitable Trust, you’re not just booking a getaway — you’re supporting a small local charity that helps make holidays accessible for everyone.
Our group centre and holiday cottage still have availability, offering:
• Step-free access and accessible facilities
• Comfortable, welcoming accommodation for groups and families
• Peaceful surroundings perfect for relaxing breaks
• A warm, friendly team ready to support your stay
Whether you’re planning a family holiday, group retreat, or a quiet escape, we’d love to welcome you.
Give us a call or drop us an email to find out more and book your stay.

A huge thank you to everyone who has donated so far to Lynda’s cross stitch fundraiser — your generosity and support mean so much and are truly appreciated. 💛
We thought we would take this moment to give you a little glimpse of Lynda’s beautiful work so far. Each stitch is done with such care, patience, and dedication, and it’s wonderful to see the project coming to life.
This piece is also being created to help mark and celebrate 30 years of the charity, creating a lasting memory of this very special milestone.
A special thank you to Lynda for her time, effort, and commitment to this fundraiser and for your work as a Trustee— your hard work is genuinely inspiring.
If anyone would still like to donate or share the fundraiser, here is the link:

We’ll continue to share updates as the piece progresses. Thank you all once again for being part of this journey and for helping make it such a success so far. 🙏✨

🎉 Sponsorship Opportunity – Balloon Arch for Our 30th Birthday Fun Day! 🎉
The Beamsley Project Charitable Trust is excited to be celebrating our 30th Birthday Fun Day on Saturday 11th July 2026, and we’re currently looking for a kind sponsor to help make the day extra special.
We are hoping to find someone to design and create a balloon arch, which will be used as a vibrant backdrop for the event and for our photo opportunities throughout the day.
We are also thrilled to share that Jo Duttine from Coronation Street will be joining us on the day. He has very kindly offered his time for a special slot for photos and autographs, which we know will be a real highlight for everyone attending!
If you or your business would be interested in sponsoring and creating our balloon arch, we would love to hear from you. Your support would help us make this milestone celebration truly memorable for our community.

🐣🌼 Easter fun with a BIG impact! 🌼🐣
Here at Beamsley Project Charitable Trust, we believe every family deserves the chance to make special holiday memories 💛
This Easter, we’re asking for something a little different… and a lot of fun!
👇 Drop a comment below with ONE of these:
🐰 Your favourite Easter treat
🥚 Your best (or worst!) Easter egg hunt story
🌷 Or just an emoji that screams Easter to you!

Why are we asking? Because every comment helps our post reach more people. And the more people who see us, the more families with disabilities we can support with life-changing holidays 🏡✨

Seriously—your comment can help as much as a donation.

So go on… don’t be shy… what’s your Easter vibe this year? 🐣💛

📣 Donation Request – Filing Cupboard Needed 📣
Hi everyone 😊
I’m reaching out on behalf of the Beamsley Project Charitable Trust at Bolton Abbey.
We’re currently looking for a lockable filing cupboard (similar to the one in the picture attached) that anyone in the local area may no longer need. If you have one sitting unused and would be happy to donate it, it would be hugely appreciated and put to great use supporting our work.
We’re happy to arrange collection if needed, so it can be easily rehomed.
Please comment below or send me a message if you can help — thank you so much in advance for your support! 💛

We’re so grateful for Diane’s creativity, dedication and willingness to put her needles to work for such a special milestone year. 💙
