For the third consecutive year, we are proudly supporting the upcoming Old Goats Grumble festival, which is set to take place in Denby, Derbyshire, right by our charming development, Shipley Lakeside.
Organised by the League of Zeal motorcycle club, the beer and music festival will take place on the weekend of August 25th -26th, with all proceeds generated during the event going to the registered charity, Lauren’s Legacy.
Lauren’s Legacy was established in memory of Lauren Elliot, the inspiration behind the Old Goats Grumble festival and a devoted attendee for many years. Lauren tragically passed away due to cancer in June 2019, but her spirit continues to inspire the annual festival, which serves as a heart-warming tribute to her legacy of spreading joy and helping those in need.
Lauren was renowned for her imaginative cocktail creations, which she cheerfully served to her friends and fellow festival goers from her post at the festival bar. When she wasn’t creating cocktails and enjoying her love of music, Lauren dedicated herself to fundraising for those in need, which led to her raising over £90,000 for the Teenage Cancer Trust.
By raising funds via donations and events such as the Old Goats Grumble festival, Lauren’s Legacy continues Lauren’s mission in fulfilling the wishes of those teenagers and young adults going through cancer treatment. These wishes encompass a range of experiences, from a memorable family holiday to coveted concert tickets or seats at a major sporting event. In fact, Lauren’s Legacy has now acquired a deluxe holiday home at Ashbourne Heights Holiday Park in the Peak District, allowing families going through cancer treatment a chance to have a free stay for long weekends.
Live music will take centre stage at the festival, featuring both local talents and various tribute acts across diverse genres. This year’s lineup includes exciting acts like Rainbow Rising and Chris Henry’s DJ set Ultrabeat, ensuring there’s something to everyone’s tastes.
Taking place in Denby, the festival is just a short drive from our Shipley Lakeside development, which boasts an array of elegant four-bedroom homes nestled amidst a picturesque lakeside backdrop.
This festival follows our annual corporate golf day earlier this year, when we raised £4150 for Lauren’s Legacy.
Natalie Griffiths, Sales and Marketing Director for Harron Homes North Midlands, said, “We’re thrilled to once again sponsor the Old Goats Grumble festival. This marks our third consecutive year supporting the remarkable event. The festival is always a hit with attendees, and Lauren’s Legacy does tremendous work as a charity.”
