This year is the 300 th anniversary of John Kelsick’s
historic Will of 1723, which has brought enormous
benefit to the young people of Ambleside and Lakes
Parish over the past three centuries. John Kelsick,
whose family were provision merchants, was only
23 when he died, yet he had the foresight to see how
his assets could be used to provide free education,
helping young people attain better opportunities in
life. These same assets continued to accumulate
over the centuries, and still support the education of
girls and boys of all ages up to 25, through their
schools, further education, apprenticeships, training
and university, together with a wide range of
educational activities. The fascinating story of how
the generosity and influence of one man helped
shape the lives of so many will be recounted in
words and pictures, ‘In Honour of John Kelsick’, at
an Anniversary Presentation at 7.30pm on Friday
November 3 at the Kelsick Centre, followed by
refreshments. All are welcome.

For those of you who don't know Andy Mc our famous bar man sadly suffered another Stoke 2 weeks ago. I have just visited him in Lancaster Hospital and I am please to say he is making great progress and should be home in Ambleside this week and I am sure that as soon that he is able he will be back serving all his friends back at the Rule.
