To book your place, and find out more about Nimble Arts, go to http://nimblearts.co.uk/?page_id=685

We've still got spaces remaining for the half term club, although recommend booking soon, as, particularly the mid-week days, tend to get full!


A few updates to what's happening!

Monday: We're delighted that local artist Lou Smith (Captured on the Rye) will be joining us on the Monday for some intergalactic screen printing (and there will also be some other fun arts and crafts!)


Tuesday: Nimble regular actor extraordinaire Ben Neale will be leading us into a day of dramatic immersion into the mad Professor's lab


More to follow as we get everything firmed up, it's going to be fun and Becky and Catherine are being joined by even more creative artists than ever to co-run these days and make then super inspiring!

Don't forget to book now if you want to join us this May - there are still spaces available all days, but I'll pop up a message as they fill up!


We're also looking for a second school or community venue to run some courses in this summer, if you're a governor/school representative looking to host holiday activities, any thoughts or ideas are really welcome (more here: http://eepurl.com/TTiEf)

Hi All, places are still available but filling up quickly, particularly the mid-week days!


As it's a bank holiday Monday, if you're looking for family activities but only want to come for a half day, we're thinking of offering half day sessions for our art and crafts day (as we've had lots of messages from people who are also doing family things that day), so do let us know. We'll get this on the website shortly, or can you message me here or email us at [email protected]. That day is:


Morning: T-shirt screen printing with the wonderful Lou from Captured in the Rye

Afternoon: 3 spacey arts activities (making a rocket that flies, creating a robot from recycled materials, and making an interplanetary mobile)

Just to update on spaces remaining! I'll try and keep this up to date, as I suspect we may fill up on some days (Wednesday and Thursday looking nearly full) but:


Monday 26th: Arts and Crafts - lots of spaces! Of course, it's a bank holiday and many of you are doing family things (we probably should have known this!), but children are welcome to join us for a half day (look at what's happening when on our website), and parents can come and join in too!


Tuesday 27th: Drama - 10 spaces


Wednesday 28th: Circus/acrobatics = 5 spaces


Thursday 29th: Experimental music - 5 spaces


Friday 30th: Film Lab - 10+ spaces


I'll keep us updated, we're really looking forward to the week!

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
