In the exhibition we are exploring the rich diversity of our seaside resort over all periods. The common denominator is that they all begin with B. This is to catch the attention of visiting children who love the game “I Spy.” We have links with local Primary Schools who discuss the visit in advance and we devise something they can do towards the exhibition. This year they are decorating paper Bunting.

Babylon A.D/ Bad Actress

Comments Off on Babylon A.D/ Bad Actress
BABYLON A.D.
Formed back in 1987, one of the major players of the MTV glam metal generation, hard rock outfit BABYLON A.D. from San Francisco Bay will be heading to the UK for a short tour in September 2025.
Chosen to headline the HRH Sleaze festival this year, they will make their first trip back to the UK since their appearance at FireFest in 2017, and this time they’d like to explore opportunities at some of our most popular city music venues.
They have released three new albums since last time they performed here and have another due for release in August which will time perfectly with a September tour.
With 36 years of touring and recording experience behind them, a healthy social fanbase of over 15K followers and a set packed with classic tracks and new material the band have everything to offer in the way of live shows. The touring band line-up includes three of the original band members from 1987 – Derek Davies (vocals), and guitarists Ron Freschi and John Matthews. Bassist Craig Pepe and drummer Dylan Soto both joined in 2023.
The live shows are loud, high energy, professional and a winner with any fans of pure, unapologetic, old-school rock and roll.

Bad Actress
heart, soul & rock ‘n’ roll
Long before BAD ACTRESS burst on to their local music scene in 2018, each of the members had been clocking up performing, writing and recording experience with different bands of different styles and influences.
In bringing all this together they quickly established an extensive catalogue of solid original material, rooted in ‘good time’ hard rock and written to impress.
They use each and every one of their live performances to showcase this material and soon bagged a few awards for their efforts. Since then, they have been delighting crowds wherever they go.
They’ve supported top acts such as Gun, Electric Boys and Hardline, and completed two UK tours supporting Marco Mendoza (Whitesnake, Dead Daisies, Journey). They’ve played festivals and headline shows the length and breadth of the UK, including headlining the second stage at the Hard Rock Hell Sleaze Fest 2022 in the Sheffield O2

Council’s Fit for Free initiative boosts health and wellbeing for hundreds of residents

Comments Off on Council’s Fit for Free initiative boosts health and wellbeing for hundreds of residents

North Lincolnshire Council is celebrating the early success of its Fit for Free initiative, a health and well-being programme to support older residents, and individuals with learning disabilities, across the region.

Launched on 1 April 2025, the scheme offers eight weeks of complimentary off-peak access to swimming, gym facilities, and virtual fitness classes.

It is open to residents aged 66 and over and residents aged 16 and above with a learning disability, and aims to:

• Encourage more active lifestyles
• Enhance physical and mental well-being
• Reduce social isolation among target groups

Between April and July, the programme has already seen 788 participants across seven leisure sites.

Cllr Rob Waltham, leader of North Lincolnshire Council, said: “Fit for Free is about more than just fitness – it’s about opportunity, connection, and giving people the tools to live healthier, happier lives.

“We made a promise to support our older residents through the cost of living challenges, and this initiative is part of keeping that promise. By removing financial barriers, we’re helping people stay active, connected and well, physically and mentally.”

Cllr Carl Sherwood, cabinet member for safer, stronger communities (rural), added: “This initiative is also a vital part of our wider plan to support residents with complex needs, including those with learning disabilities, to live more independently.

“By investing in accessible health and well-being opportunities, we’re empowering people to take control of their lives and build confidence in their communities.”

For more information on accessing the Fit for Free initiative go to the NL Active Fit for Free page on our website.
