A very wet Tuesday morning saw me visiting the Eagle and Child to have a chat with Eve Townson and Glen Duckett.

If you’ve not heard of the Eagle and Child before, they are a multi-award winning family dining pub situated overlooking Ramsbottom.

Providing training and experience for many young adults; helping them learn a trade whilst building up their confidence in the hospitality industry. Similar to what Jamie Oliver did with Fifteen back in 2002, Glen Duckett is doing here in Ramsbottom.

When Budge (Andrew Burgess) first started Team JMC, it was created out of a desire to have a social group based out of the company JMC.it. Andrew has since sold this company, but he still maintains Team JMC and it’s as big as ever.

With some members setting world records, it would be easy to think that this is an elite team with no room for you to join. Well, you’d be absolutely wrong, you can join if you are simply doing a 5k run round a park, do it with Team JMC and get the support of the team behind you.

This week I went down to the Hare and Hounds where they were hosting, for the second time an Open Mic night as a precursor to the Literary and Arts Festival that is due to take place in Ramsbottom on the 21st of November.

It was a great night, I met a lot of people I hadn’t met before and listened to a lot of great poetry. Many people think that it’s stuffy to listen to poems and get in touch with feelings, to those I say come down to the Literary and Arts festival and relax, you’ll enjoy it, I promise.

When Lysha Holmes moved to Ramsbottom 11 years ago, not only did she not know that she was pregnant with her first child Issy, but that just one year later she would create her own very successful business.

Qui Recruitment has been established since 2005 and has recently celebrated its 10 year anniversary.

When Lysha first started Qui from her kitchen on Albert Street after recently becoming a Mum, she quickly realised that she wanted to spend more time with her young family.

On this weeks episode of This is Rammy I had the pleasure of speaking to local artist Adam Rowlinson. I set off for his house on a dark midweek night in October to record the interview, and Adam was extremely welcoming.
