A WARM WELCOME

Every year, the small Peak District village of Taddington in Derbyshire is pleased to welcome people from all over the world to its Well Dressing and Flower Festival.

This year’s theme is “A Village for all seasons“.

There are events throughout the week, catering for a wide range of ages.

Thanks to an award from the lottery fund, “Awards for All”, we have a new Tea and Cake marquee this year.

More info can be found here.

On Sunday 28th May, as part of Taddington Teas, we will be hosting a special ceremony to name the recently refurbished back room (the old billiard room) “The Pickford Room” in honour of Anthony ‘Tant’ Pickford. ​ Everyone who knew Tant is invited to come and join us for the dedication and share their memories.

Tant, who sadly passed away last year, lived in Taddington all his life and dedicated much of his spare time to supporting, maintaining and improving the Institute so the committee is very keen to recognise his contribution.

The short ceremony will start at 14:00, when a plaque dedicated to Tant will be unveiled and some of Tant’s family and friends will say a few words and share some memories.

Everyone is welcome to attend and Taddington Teas runs, as usual, from 11:00 – 16:00 on Saturday, Sunday and Monday (27th- 29th May).
