9th October - 11th October 2025
Neighbourhood Plan consultation
Time: 4pm -7pm
Location: Fourways 2, Dilston Terrace, NE65 0DT
Amble’s Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group have been meeting for the last year and working hard to develop policies for the whole of Amble over a range of concerns.
This is a project to represent the community in Amble and how we want development to occur. We want to show you what we have done so far and get your views on the plan.
We are proposing an early-engagement consultation event where the aim is to get feedback from the community on the scope, vision and objectives of the plan which we have now honed and revised. We want to give people a flavour of the proposed policies and to see what comments they draw.
This is an ‘informal’ event and not a full formal consultation on the pre-submission draft which we have pencilled this in for hopefully early 2026.
EVENT:- Thursday 9 October 4pm - 7pm and Saturday 11 October 10am - 1pm in the Conference Room, Fourways2, Dilston Terrace, Amble, NE65 0DT. -

Saturday 1 November -Hunt for the Wilderpeople Another oldie but goldie,
The Hunt for the Wilderpeople is a comedy drama set in New Zealand and features a really entertaining combination of satire (of social workers and police officers), adventure, and building friendship in the face of adversity (and there’s a lot of adversity). Starring Sam Neill, this charmingly offbeat tale unites a solid cast, a talented filmmaker, and a poignant, funny, deeply affecting message. (2016, cert PG, 1h 41’).

Warkworth Drama Group
Time: 7.30 pm
Location: Warkworth War Memorial Hall
Two One Act Comedies. Luvvies - Lynne Brittney
The Horbridge Amateur Dramatic Society Guild has organised a quiz. Debbie has arrived with allergy problems; Roger’s menopausal wife has taken to her bed, so the team is one short; Mike is in a bad mood, and the Dalbridge Strollers’ team is being rowdy. To cap it all, Shirley has put a swear box on each table to raise money for the church. Promises to be an eventful night.
Womberang - by Sue Townsend
Rita Onions breezes into a drab gynaecology clinic waiting room and her verve and energy, combined with a complete lack of respect for authority, gradually spreads an infectious, joyous anarchy throughout the patients as she demolishes officious staff and generally sorts out the patients’ personal problems.
Licensed bar opens 7:00 pm. Tickets: £10 Available from: N&F Young Amble and Warkworth Village Store
