Out and about in Farsley on Saturday morning, why not call in to Farsley Community Church for a coffee.

This week it is the turn of the Boys’Brigade and Girls Association to be serving the drinks. They probably won’t display the cups like we do but they make a great cuppa 😀

Every Saturday Morning between 10.00 and 12.00 Farsley Community Church have a Coffee Morning which is run by the various organisations that use the building .

All the money raised each week goes towards the running cost of the building which serves many community organisations

Thank you to all that attended.

Review: A knee slapping, side-splitting night of live theatre in Farsley - West Leeds Dispatch By Susan Johnson The seventh annual Beauty Pageant was held at Farsley Community Church by the Splinter Theatre Company over last weekend – and it proved to be a knee […]

A huge thank you to everyone that came to see our play. The donation money raised from the tea & coffee was a fantastic £111.50 so that will be donated to The Alzheimer’s Society.
Thank you all.

Tonight is your last chance to catch our play which has had audiences laughing from start to finish. Last few tickets remaining, message us if you want one.

One review from last night was “I laughed so much I had to re do my makeup”

Did you come and see our show last night? Do you have tickets for tonight or Saturday? If you don’t and you fancy a night of laughs at this hilarious comedy there are still a few tickets left for both nights. Send us a message on Facebook and don’t leave it too late….

Tickets still on sale 😁 send us a message to book.

For everyone getting the GCSE results today, just remember it's what you do with the rest of your life that's more important than exam marks.
Good luck.

Exciting news, this is our next performance 😁

We’re going on a bear hunt. 🐻

Let the Leeds Bear Hunt begin! 🐻

No need to worry! We're only talking about chasing these brand-new vibrant bear sculptures known as the Leeds Bear Hunt.

Dotted around Leeds for 10 weeks from the 1 July by Leeds Hospitals Charity to support the incredible work that Leeds Children's Hospital does.

35 giant bears (and some smaller Bear cubs) decorated by local, national, and international artists can be found anywhere around you. You can also see our very own WelcomeToLeeds bear somewhere!

Maybe some of them are already out in the wild 🤫

It’s our turn for coffee morning at Farsley Community Church today, come down and say hi.

Some news on the road closures in Farsley on 8th May.

You might know they have got it wrong

The road signs put up on Old Road and near to The Cenotaph say “ Due to an event taking place on May 8th the roads will be closed from 1.30”

This is wrong and the Main road will shut at 1.00 pm and side roads leading into Town Street will start to shut from 12.00 .

Please note Andrew Street Carpark next to The Post Office will be closed for the event.

Early warning ……please let neighbours know who are not on social media.

The following roads will not have access to Farsley Town Street on Monday 8th May when we close for a Street Party

Town Street will be closed from Frances Street to the Cenotaph from 1.00pm until 5.00pm

Some of the side roads shown will have access restricted from 12 noon so the contractor can put barriers in to place

These are the roads: South Drive, St. John's View, Beckbury Close, Beckberry Street, New Street, Prospect Street, Old Fold, Back Lane, Croft Street , Water Lane, Andrew Square, Wesley Street, The Cherry Trees, Wade Street leading to Ebenezer Street, High Street, Charles Street
