We’re on the hunt for new BOARD MEMBERS. Do you We’re on the hunt for new BOARD MEMBERS. Do you know anyone suitable? Please help us to track down some lovely people to help support our work with communities. We’re open to hearing from individuals with all sorts of experience, but we’ll be especially delighted to find folk with business or financial backgrounds. So let’s go, have a good think about anyone you know would be a perfect match for us. When the next parade happens, they’ll be right at the centre of making the magic happen. Trust us, it’s a fantastic feeling. Please email clare@handmadeproductions.org.uk for more details. Thank you!
This is just blatant parade spam now but not gonna This is just blatant parade spam now but not gonna apologise. We’re really lucky to have so many talented photographers who love to document the parade. This gorgeous set have been shared with us by @pengellyron and we LOVE them. Thank you Ron, much appreciated!
How much did we love this?! Enough to do it all ag How much did we love this?! Enough to do it all again? Want to help make that happen? Here’s how you can give us the best possible chance of finding the funds and bringing the joy back as soon as possible - it’s really easy and there’s two options: 🌟Complete this really short audience feedback survey. It’s super-speedy and will really make a difference to our funding applications (clickable link via linktree in bio) https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeO_t5hfUDi0FTRw_MhvD3GvJ8i2JzCgx8XeOLNFCknmUoMLQ/viewform 🌟If you’re able to, please make a donation to our crowdfunder. We know we’ve met the target already, but we set it very low - this is just a tiny percentage of the actual costs of running the project. If we’re able to demonstrate that there is a huge local appreciation for the parade then we stand a much stronger chance of raising the rest of the funds. NOW is the time to donate and make it clear how much we value this in our community (clickable link via linktree in bio) http://tinyurl.com/summerparade25 THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT ❤️ 📸Gorgeous photos from @craigshaw7267
Did you explore THE CALDERDALE WAY with us yesterd Did you explore THE CALDERDALE WAY with us yesterday? The 2025 Hebden Bridge Handmade Parade roamed through waters, woods and windswept hilltops, celebrating our lively and beautiful valley. While we’ve got your attention with a few of our favourite shots from @ianhodgson123, we’d also like to thank the many, many people who made it all possible. The whole artistic team - including interns, work experience and masterclass participants working with @thingumatheatre Over 80 volunteers Stewarding team The project team, including Leeway Creative Production Ravenscliffe High School Scout Road Academy Riverside Junior School Ferney Lee Primary School Crossley Mill Nursery Happy Valley Pride Calderdale Young Carers ‘Making Friends’ Calderdale community group The Town Hall, Hebden Bridge Marcos Cafe Our funders - @aceagrams, @hebdenroydtowncouncil , @calderdale And last but very definitely not least - our fantastic audience, who make the whole making, parading community experience the BEST THING EVER. Thank you all so, so much❤️❤️❤️
Wow. Today was absolutely glorious, thank you so m Wow. Today was absolutely glorious, thank you so much to everyone involved. So many participants, artists, volunteers, behind-the-scenes magicians. All joined by the BEST AUDIENCE EVER. Hebden Bridge, you never fail to delight us. ❤️THANK YOU❤️ We’ll be back soon to share our photos and chat more about the day. In the meantime, this gorgeous shot by Ian Hodgson deserves a little love. It captures a workshop moment pre-parade, and no, you’re not losing the plot. This puppet didn’t actually make it out onto the streets, because the wind forecast was worrying. So let’s give her a wave now, can’t leave anyone out! We’re putting our feet up now with a wine or two, but tomorrow we would love to wake up to some of your favourite bits and photos. If you’re feeling particularly joyful, please feel free to write a sentence or two that we can quote in a funding application. Cos we really, really, REALLY want to do this again❤️
