June 2022: A Different First Sunday (and its on a Saturday instead)
Dear friends, lovers and loiterers
I am delighted to share an invitation to join The LRM and our friends at Walk The Plank for a “Day Out at Drinkies”. This is part of Walk The Plank’s Irwell Weekender and promises to be an extraordinary First Sunday (and not just because it’s on a Saturday)
Find us between 12.30-4.30 on Saturday 4th June at
Drinkwater Park, Rainsough Brow, Prestwich, M25 9XW
Experience different performances, activities and sensory delights as you explore the woodland, meadows, river and ruins. We will be joined by artists and performers who will share songs, stories, games, wanders and more – I will share information about some of our collaborators over the next week, they include some cherished loiterers and amazing talents.

Activities and performances will take place in a number of areas which have existing path access but some may be muddy depending on the weather. The site is step-free and includes both level as well as uneven ground. We will bring a small amount of additional seating.
