The event takes place over the weekend of Friday, June 6 and Saturday, June 7 and the organising team is made up of several Horsforth business owners, councillors and familiar faces. 

The Reverend Nigel Sinclair is team rector at St Margaret’s, Lyndsey Acaster is co-owner of The Old Kings Arms on Town Street, Chris Hall is a local DJ, Dave Brosnan is a town councillor and represents Horsforth Town Team, and Mark Costello is from Horsforth Brewery. 

Lyndsey said, “I approached Nigel about two or three years ago. We worked together a lot during lockdown, so we’ve had a good relationship since then. We planned to do it last year, but it was just the wrong time to do it. Then we decided, let’s move it to June. And we went from there. We’re really making it for the community, St Margaret’s is such an iconic building. It’s Nigel’s last year, so it makes perfect sense to throw a big leaving bash at the church for him with loads of beer.”
