Our 2012 brochure is now available from our website by clicking on this link. 

If you would like a printed version, simply email me your address with a note of how many copies you would like and we will send them off to you as soon as they arrive back from the printers – probably early January. 

As always, if you don’t see exactly what you are looking for in our brochure, give our Bookings Team a call as you may have an idea we’ve not thought of and together we can create something wonderful and new that suits your requirements

New Plans & Campaign for 2012

Our new plans include a ferry bridge to the island, creating an environmental garden, transforming the Wethered Hut into the Bed Shed and installing Winter Sports, such as ice skating, ice climbing and tobogganing to make our Winter season just as magical as our Summer season. 

All of these things rely on funding being secured and I will of course send you an email letting you know when each of these projects has been completed. 

Our main campaign for 2012 is Improving River Access, tidying up our existing paths, creating new ones and landscaping; all of which will allow our natural heritage to look its very best and more importantly allow access for all, including those who visit who have a disability.  Any help you can give realising this project – or any of our others – would be hugely appreciated.  Either money or time is gratefully received; we are particularly interested in securing the voluntary support from someone who could organise our events. We appreciate that few of us have much of either of these things to spare, so please spread the word of all that we do here, as the very best way to support the Longridge Charity is by using the centre and enjoying our adventurous activities.

Christmas Opening Times

We are all really looking forward to welcoming you back to Longridge in 2012.  If you haven’t already made your booking to visit us, our Bookings Office is open until the end of the 21^st December and reopens on 4^th January.  There will be a member of the team popping in the office most days between the 21^st and 4^th,  so if you have a booking enquiry then please email or leave a message and we will get back to you.

Have a wonderful Christmas and New Year.

The Longridge Team
