Upper Eden U3A

Years 9, 10 and 12

David Pelter lives and works in Kirkby Lonsdale making concert classical guitars. His instruments are sold worldwide and have a waiting time of 14 months.
Having made his first instrument at the age of 15, he returned in 2012 to making as a full time activity. He soon built a reputation and following for making instruments of the highest quality. In pursuit of a “unique voice” for his instruments, Lockdown gave him the time to focus on a programme of extensive testing that resulted in changes to instrument design that experts have commented upon as being exceptional.
Come along and gain an insight into the making of concert classical guitars in Kirkby Lonsdale and how science, space age materials and traditional methods combine to produce a unique sound.

On 31 Jan we will be hosting a social uphill only running race from our door to the top of Arant Haw.
Members of Helm Hill Runners have organised this low key club event a number of times from different starting points. The format is interval starts from 6.30pm so that runners reach the summit more or less at the same time and can jog back down together.
We have ten places to give to any Sedbergh runners who fancy giving it a try (self sufficiency and confidence on the fell needed).
Drop us a line if your idea of a good time is running up a hill in the dark
