Council Leader attends film premiere

Councillor Susan Hinchcliffe joined members of our Monday Creative group for the premiere of our new short film

Keighley Creative were thrilled to have a visit from Councillor Susan Hinchcliffe to watch the premiere of our new Arts For Brain Health film, showcasing our Monday Creative group.

Monday Creative is our weekly creative group for people living with dementia and their carers, where attendees have the opportunity to meet new people, discover the well-being benefits of art, and most importantly be creative!

It was a great opportunity for Susan to meet our Monday Creative service users, and find out more about our growing Creative Health programme.

This film was supported by Give Bradford, National Lottery Awards For All, the Bradford District and Craven Health and Care Partnership and the KWV Community Partnership, and will help to publicise the importance our our work.

Thanks to Susan, film-maker Danny Hardaker, project leads Ailsa Lewer and Carine Brosse, and our amazing service users.

Keighley cinema hosted young film festival

This April, Keighley Creative and The Unit welcomed some new movie-goers to its teeny Stockroom Cinema.

Leeds Film contacted us about using our pop-up cinema to offer Keighley families a unique cinema experience over the Easter holidays.

Screenings put on were part of the Leeds Young Film Festival (LYFF) and included 80s’ fantasy classic Labyrinth, the Roald Dahl animation Fantastic Mr Fox and the still popular cartoon Moomins. Most popular was the unique Marcel the Shell with shoes on who entertained viewers both young and old.

Thanks so much to the team at Leeds Film and our fabulous bunch of volunteers for putting on such a great series of events.
