(01539 725133) and book them. We will sell out soon of many of the ticket  options – we only have a few left for “A Celebration of Sea Cliff  Climbing”, Catherine Destivelle and the Saturday Film Pass. We have already  sold out of “Touching the Void” and Joe Simpson.

May I remind you to vote for the finalists of the Web Photo Competition which will be posted on the web in the next couple of days. Any tickets now booked will be held at the Brewery Box office for collection (including Leisure Centre events).
