The remarkable true story of Maidenhead resident Sir Nicholas Winton, who rescued over 600 Jewish Czech and Slovak children at the outbreak of World War II.

Sir Nicholas did not speak about these events for more than half a century. His exploits would have probably been forgotten if his wife, fifty years later, hadn't found a suitcase in the attic, full of documents and transport plans. Today the story of this rescue is known all over the world.

The screening marks Holocaust Memorial Day – the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz.

It will be followed by a presentation hosted by Nick Winton, son of 'Nicky'.

This class is suited to those who have been practising for at least 6. My intention for this class is to move our practise forward, explore different avenues and approaches to the traditional postures. We will be aiming to be going deeper into awareness and noticing.

The yoga I teach is an evolution of over 20 years of practice and study, perhaps moving away from external evaluation of the postures and moving towards an internal sense of the postures, moving away from the more used traditional approach of systemised yoga to a more experiential approach. Whilst looking at traditional Hatha Yoga postures and pranayamas, I will be encouraging fun and freedom within the traditional structure, whilst taking into our awareness fundamental anatomical and functional aspects required by our bodies for maximum wellbeing benefits.

Please bring a blanket, a Yoga / Pilates mat, and wear loose comfortable clothing.

A triple bill of acoustic, folk singer songwriters.

A rare opportunity to see three young talented women, rising stars of the folk world create a beautiful evening of well-crafted music with international roots.

In the last year, Londoner Flo Perlin has played live sessions on Radio 2, performed at major folk festivals and amassed millions of listeners and thousands of fans. Audiences have taken to heart her thrilling second album Characters and the lead single Baghdad is a celebration of family and her own rich multi-cultural heritage. Folk Radio described Flo’s performance on the record as “a cocoon of meditative introspection, enveloping the listeners in Perlin’s honeyed vocals”.

Daisy released Songs of Solace (2021) and Cradle Songs (2022) and toured extensively. Her talents have earned praise from journalists including Paul Sexton who call her “captivating” and BBC broadcasters like Iain Anderson who count her as “something exceptional” through to fellow artists Sir Ray Davies and Guy Garvey who commend her song writing and “gorgeous voice”.

Fern Maddie, in between goat farming in rural Vermont, released her first record the incredibly beautiful North Branch River right when the world was locking down in 2020. Undeterred she followed in the summer of 2022 with Ghost Story. In their 5-star review of this new record, The Guardian highlighted “Maddie’s young, welcoming voice belies a darkly evocative lyricism creating an album that is both unsettling and thrilling”.

After an incredible sold out debut run, the man who asked us “do you ski?” is leaving his home in the Tower of London (for good).

Catch him as he departs on a second triumphant tour across our nation armed with even more outrageous takes, unbelievable tales and biblical chat to leave you bowled over with laughter.

Having amassed a loyal fan base of over a quarter of a million followers the multi-viral, social media sensation is delving even deeper into his ludicrous life as he tries to smarten up the not so honorable aspects of himself. Take a look at the pitfalls of online celebrity, the perils of post-palace living and find out, that in an age where everyone is so obsessed with the veneer of virtual contentment, maybe it takes crashing back down to reality to discover where happiness truly lies.

As seen on Comedy Central and tour support for Milton Jones.
