Legendary American folk singer Judy Collins is touring right now, which, at 82 would be impressive enough, but she also tells me she’s working on a new album. She is a pioneer singer song writer, and is playing our own Leeds City Varieties on Saturday 12th November.

A part-time artistic engagement residency has been funded to work with the restoration team and partners working at the Great North Bog site which spans large parts of northern England and their community.

As key partners in WaterLANDS, Yorkshire Integrated Catchment Solutions Programme (iCASP), at University of Leeds, will be taking part in the selection process.
