SUMMARY:What next for community leaders in the North East? With the Joseph Rowntree Foundation and Larger Us.
DESCRIPTION:What skills do community leaders need now? \nThis is the question we’ll be exploring together. \nVillages\, town and cities in the North East are going through social upheaval that is being propelled by loss. Locally\, people are watching the things they used to rely on slide away: industry\, jobs\, identity\, secure housing\, and civic pride. Nationally\, we’ve lost trust in our politicians\, the cost of living has soared and our waterways are polluted. Globally\, people are losing their lives and livelihoods to conflict and climate change. \nYou might even say we’re facing an apocalypse… \nWe tend to associate the word apocalypse with ‘ending’ but it actually means ‘revelation’  and so we’d like you to imagine with us about what a ‘good apocalypse’ in the North East might look like: What is being revealed to us right now? How might we use this moment to steer our communities towards a positive future? And what new tools do we need in our toolkit to do so? \nJoin us to think about what how we might: \n\nStop ourselves from burning out\nBridge divides in our community\nHelp people feel like they belong\nFace our losses together\nTell the kind of stories that inspire hope and action\n\nThis is an opportunity to think about what support you need as a community leader to face the challenges ahead. Together\, we’ll agree priorities and decide on practical next steps. \nYour hosts: \nVictoria Hughes and Darren Leighton of the Joseph Rowntree Foundation which is investing in programmes focused on transforming broken systems in the region. \nOur guests: \nAlex Evans and Claire Brown of Larger Us\, who use insights from psychology to support community leaders to bridge divides\, bring people together and build broad support for action on the biggest challenges we face. \nJRF is working with Larger Us to develop free training and support for community leaders in the North East and this is your opportunity to let Alex and Claire know directly what you’d find most helpful. \n  \nTo reserve your space\, www.tickettailor.com/events/largerus/2079549 \n  \nPlan for the day \n10.30am: Arrive\, grab a cuppa\, get settled. \n11am: Welcome from Victoria Hughes. \n11.15am: Lecture – ‘A Good Apocalypse in the North East?’ with Alex Evans. \n11.45am: Your thoughts\, comments and questions. \n12.15pm: Delicious lunch provided by REfUSE Cafe. \n1pm: Discussion in small groups about what support community leaders need now. \n2pm: Reflections and next steps. \n2.30pm: Informal final cuppa for anyone who wants to chat more. \n3pm: Close

SUMMARY:Understanding Class Politics in 2026
DESCRIPTION:Class politics once felt clear-cut. Today\, it looks very different. Voting patterns are shifting\, long-standing loyalties are weakening\, and new political identities are emerging across working-class communities. What’s driving this change\, and what does it mean for the future? \nFaiza Shaheen\, Executive Director of Tax Justice UK\, and Professor Mike Savage of the London School of Economics\, author of Social Class in the 21st Century\, will share insights and open up a vital conversation about power\, representation\, and the future of working-class politics. Together\, they will explore what has changed\, why it matters\, and what new approaches might be needed to rebuild collective power. \nThe evening will begin with a talk in Redhills’ Pitman’s Parliament from 6pm\, followed by drinks in the Banner Room from 7pm. \nThis event is open to anyone interested in the future of working-class communities\, whether you’re an organiser\, campaigner\, trade unionist\, community leader\, or simply curious about the forces reshaping politics today. All are very welcome. \nReserve your place here

SUMMARY:Easington & Eppleton Colliery Disasters: 75th Anniversary Memorial
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Redhills Durham Miners Hall on Friday 29 May for a special act of remembrance marking the 75th anniversary of the Easington and Eppleton Colliery disasters. \nIn 1951\, County Durham was shaken by two devastating mining disasters within weeks of each other. On 29 May\, an underground explosion at Easington Colliery claimed the lives of 83 miners and rescue workers\, leaving families and communities across the East Durham coalfield grieving. On 6 July\, a further explosion at Eppleton Colliery\, near Hetton-le-Hole\, took the lives of nine miners. \nTogether\, these tragedies left a deep and lasting mark on the Durham coalfield. They remain among the most painful chapters in the region’s industrial history\, remembered by many as part of the “Year of Tragedy”. \nThe memorial will take place at Redhills from 11.30am\, with the act of remembrance beginning at 11.45am in the Redhills Memorial Garden. The ceremony will include speeches\, prayers\, a roll call of the dead\, and a performance of Gresford – The Miners’ Hymn. \nRefreshments will follow in the new Banner Room at Redhills. \nThe memorial will be led by Revd Colin Jackson of Easington and Revd Jenny Portapryde of Eppleton. \nAll are welcome to attend. \nAs we mark 75 years since these disasters\, we come together to honour those who died\, recognise the sacrifice of mining families\, and ensure that the memory of these communities continues to live on. \nNo ticket or RSVP required.

SUMMARY:Who was William Cuthbert Blackett?
DESCRIPTION:Image credit: The North of England Institute of Mining and Mechanical Engineers \n\n\n\nWilliam Cuthbert Blackett dominated the life of Sacriston in the early 20th century. Who was he?\n\n\n\nBlackett was Managing Director of the Charlaw and Sacriston Colliery Co. Ltd. But he was much more than this. An innovator in mining engineering and mines rescue\, a soldier\, a prominent supporter of local causes\, he was often at odds with his workers but retained their respect. Above all\, Blackett was a highly courageous man who on several occasions risked his own life to rescue miners trapped underground and was awarded medals for his bravery. This lecture will tell the story of a local hero. And\, have you ever wondered why the road marked Acorn Close Lane on Google Maps is known locally as Blackett’s Bank? This lecture will tell you why. \n\n\n\nJohn Tomaney is a Pro-Provost and Professor of Urban and Regional Planning at University College London and chair of the Trustees at Redhills. He has strong family connections with Sacriston and has been  researching its history for several years. This lecture follows one he gave last year when he sketched the early history of the village. \n\n\n\nThis event is sponsored by Redhills – the Durham Miners’ Hall and University College London. A bar will be open.Free light refreshments will be available. \n\n\n\nDuration: 1 hr 30 min
