Say Hello To Independent Baker Bake Off And Pie
 We have recently welcomed an incredibly talented independent trader to our Broxtowe markets, Bake Off and Pie.
This trader is an award-winning bakery which sells baked goods to a quality standard you won’t find anywhere else – from delicious pastries to mouth-watering loaves and cakes, Bake Off and Pie has kept its customers’ savoury cravings satisfied since it started in 2013.
One of the bakery’s unique selling points is that the owner, Barry Pilkington, uses flour straight from Nottingham’s very own Green’s Windmill for his rye and wholemeal breads – so the baked goods are truly Nottinghamshire 'born and bread'.
You can find Bake Off and Pie at all three of our weekly markets:
- Kimberley Market on Tuesdays between 8am and 2pm
- Beeston Market on Wednesdays between 9am and 3pm
- Stapleford Market every Thursday between 8am and 2pm
Drop by, have a chat with Barry and show your support for his venture by digging into the delicious treats that are on sale!

Sporting Memories Clubs To Open Next Week
 Two new Sporting Memories clubs will open at the end of this month to people aged 50+ who enjoy reminiscing about their experiences of watching or playing sport.
The clubs will take place weekly and will be a friendly, welcoming environment for people who are living with dementia, depression or loneliness and who want to talk sport and make new connections. The sessions will include quizzes, games and light physical activity.
The clubs will be delivered in partnership with LLeisure and Imagine Arts at The Studio in Beeston and all sessions are free to attend. The details for the opening sessions are as follows:
- Sporting Memories Beeston, Tuesday 26 April from 2pm - 4pm (solely for people living with dementia and their carers) at The Studio on Padge Road, Beeston
- Sporting Memories Chilwell, Friday 29 April from 10am - 12pm (for people over 50 who are less active) at Chilwell Olympia, Bye Pass Road, Chilwell
The Sporting Memories Network are looking for volunteers to help facilitate with these sessions. If you are interested in volunteering please contact Kelly Hart on kelly.hart@sportingmemoriesnetwork.com or 0759 263 9056.
