The Spanish demographic at CW prepared everyone some beautiful food from Asturias! Here's Cesar, he looks like a mouse. The Favas, all greasy and delicious! Head chef Ana Fernandez-Martinez, spent three weeks preparing the gourmet cuisine. Altogether a delicious, farty and wholesome affair!
A group of nice people are starting up a weekly veg buying group at Coachwerks, sourcing organic fruit and veg from a couple of very good local farms, if you're interested in joining them for low cost fruit and veg please contact Sara Avanzino: tuttocambia@gmail.com
Mags organised a big event as part of her community caff project for people to sell their own work with donations for the space as commission. Clare gave a printing workshop, we brought out the badge making machine and had a fantastic, lively day making things, chatting and drinking tea.
A good crowd showed for the second Stray Signals event at CW. Plenty of diverse acts/performances/readings - expect more exciting stuff at the next one on the first Tuesday of Feb, the 5th. For more info on Stray Signals visit www.straysignals.co.uk

It was a real pleasure to talk about theatre with people so open to what and how theatre might be discussed, and so willing to share this... Coachwerks is so impressive and all of you should be very pleased with its progress and your commitment to its success. See you soon and if I don’t before Christmas then I wish all a very festive time – all the best, Andrew"
Really busy one last Saturday. Alex got a good crew together to help him out with the bread oven & lots of people came to the Caff & brought tasty things to share. Alex wrote us an email which said "...a group of nice people are starting up a weekly veg buying group at coachwerks, sourcing organic fruit and veg from a couple of very good local farms, if you're interested in joining them for low cost fruit and veg please contact Sara Avanzino: tuttocambia@gmail.com"
A thoroughly beautiful evening of live music and song. There'll be some live sounds available through the SoundCurious website soon. www.soundcurious.org.uk
The first Stray Signals took place in front of the still-to-be-finished bread oven. As the year progresses, so will the warmth available to performers! The night is a half-curated, half-open big mix up of poetry, performance, music, food and everything inbetween. For more info visit www.straysignals.co.uk
Eva Recacha will be on a creative residence at Coachwerks in December 09, supported by the National Lottery through Arts Council England. This includes the development and performance of Eva's new piece Story Lines and a workshop. The workshop will draw on the explorations and findings of the company’s work during this residency.

A beautiful film about the inspiring life of world renouned herbalist, traveller and author Juliette De Bairacli Levy who lived a life close to nature.
For more than 60 years Juliette lived with the Gypsies, nomads and peasants of the world, learning the healing arts from these peoples who live close to nature. Juliette's well-loved and now classic herbals for animals and for children have been a vital inspiration for the present day herbal renaissance.
This year saw: stories, games, poetry, dancing, squash soup, rowdy kids, moments of hilarity & moments of extreme horror! Terrible tales were read in the purpose built "den" Followed by much merriment with doughnuts on strings & bobbing for apples. 1st prize, me, 1.75 seconds Second prize, Marion, 3 seconds 3rd prize, Tobias, 5 seconds
