Calderdale Heritage Walks are an organisation dedicated to offering the public a year-round programme of walks throughout Calderdale linked to the history and heritage of this rather special area. The majority of walks are centred on the towns and villages, but some have a more rural feel and explore the old lanes, paths and settlements of our extensive countryside.

Each season we include new walks so that there are always things to interest even patrons of several years standing. The standard walks last 2 to 2¼ hours, and are fairly easy walking.‘Extended’ walks last 2½ to 3 hours and some of those use rural paths and are harder walking. The majority of walks are not really suited to those under thirteen.

Most start points are accessible by public transport and our standard walks always go ahead, whatever the weather. If one person turns up – the walk is on ! The charge for almost all walks is £3 (for all ages).

Please see the booking links below

Recommended age 16+

In his new show 50 Things About Us Mark Thomas combines his trademark mix of storytelling, standup, mischief and really, really well researched material to examine how we have come to inhabit this divided wasteland that some of us call the United Kingdom.

Mark picks through the myths, facts and figures of our national identities to ask who do we think we are?

It is a show about money, history, songs, gongs, wigs, unicorns, guns, bungs, sods of soil and rich fuckers.

And how we have so much feeling for such a hollow land.

(In the vein of the Manifesto meets a sweary history channel)

50 Things About Us is also a podcast (coming out in September) and a book published by September Publishing in February 2020 and an art exhibition… in Liverpool January 2020.Mark Thomas combines his trademark mix of storytelling, standup, mischief and really, really well researched material to examine how we have come to inhabit this divided wasteland that some of us call the United Kingdom.

One of the north’s leading exponents of urban and natural landscape, Jake Attree (b.1950) is renowned for his powerful oil paintings. Less appreciated is his conviction that ‘drawing is the soul of art’ and that a key part of his oeuvre are his masterful pastels.

Jake has generously volunteered to share his skills in a workshop for only twelve people at Dean Clough, Halifax in aid of the campaign to get vital brain tumour treatment for Laura Nuttall.

Born in York, where he first studied painting, Jake Attree graduated from Liverpool College of Art and the Royal Academy Schools. He now lives with his wife, Lindsay, in Saltaire and maintains a studio here at Dean Clough in Halifax.

For those unfamiliar with Jake’s work click here to see a brief film of him in his Dean Clough studio

Jake’s workshop is £50 per person with all proceeds going to Laura Nuttall. The treatment Laura requires isn’t available on the NHS and to obtain it she needs to travel to Cologne in Germany.

As you might imagine, this treatment is very expensive, but it is working. You may have heard about Laura’s story as a result of Peter Kay doing some recent fundraising gigs and you can find out more by visiting her web on https://www.doingitforlaura.com/

The event will take place at Dean Clough on 31st October 11am – 3pm. The price (all of which goes to the campaign) is £50 and you can apply or find out more on info@puppetman.net
