Please note, the election debate incorrectly mentioned in the podcast. The Election Debate is on Sunday 19th April and not Friday 17th April. Friday the 17th is the last date to submit questions.

This week on This is Rammy we spoke to Gwenda from Friends of Nuttall Park and ask her what FONP is all about, what got her involved with it and why you should think about becoming involved too.

Having lived in Ramsbottom for nearly 40 years, Gwenda has seen many comings and goings around our small town of Ramsbottom and has a few of her own ideas when it comes to what Ramsbottom should do with it’s local businesses.

Friends of Nuttall Park do not charge for any of their events that they organise, but donations are very much appreciated and can be given on the day of the events, just look for someone with a bucket collecting money. All donations go towards the park to help keep it looking great.

I was lucky enough to be able to interview Melanie Southworth for This is Rammy a few weeks ago and discussed with her the climb that she’s about to undertake. Everest!

From growing up in Ramsbottom on Bolton Street, visiting The Major with her father growing up or even running a shop in Ramsbottom, Melanie has been heavily involved with Ramsbottom which is why she’s taking the Ramsbottom coat of arms on a flag to put on the top of Everest.

Whilst chatting it became evident that Melanie is a very grounded person, who clearly doesn’t appear to let anything phase her, no’one takes on Everest lightly and Mel fully understands this having been some way up it previously.
