Handmade Parade will be taking over the town of Hebden Bridge in Yorkshire this Sunday, 8th June 2014. Just two more days of costume workshops before the parade – today and Thursday 4-6pm and 7-9pm. Details of how, where and when to get involved on the festival website.

The Parade will be a timely antidote to the gloom and doom of the current BBC drama, Happy Valley, filmed locally and reaching its gory conclusion tonight. Definitely time to cheer up the valley!
