Full Episode
This is the Planet Reigate podcast. Hello, Planeteers. This is Peter Stewart. Welcome to our listener-funded podcast for Reigate, Redhill, Merston, Buckland, Betchworth and Brockham and other towns and villages in RH 1, 2, 3 and 6 as well. Welcome to our family. This is how we're reflecting and celebrating our love of life around here. My guests this week... You!
Yeah, if you took part in the great Run Rygate event last weekend and I spoke with you as you crossed the finish line, you will be on the show later. Or if you know someone who ran, keep listening to hear if they are on.
Hear about the doctor running for the hospital, the woman in a wheelchair which broke on her way round, the mum and daughter who ran together, the husband and wife, the semi-pros and the young lad who wants to be a pro. the charity runners and why they're raising money for those causes, and the runner in a tutu, the one in a gorilla costume.
From young to old, newbies and experienced, stay tuned for one of the greatest examples of community in the borough. Plus, we hear more from Kay Highmass about the big arts takeover event in Redhill in a week's time. Yeah, the Hollywood may be shut, but the shows will go on at various other venues across town, affordable and accessible.
An art exhibition, cheerleading and choirs, ballet and Bollywood, African drumming, open mic music, photography, crochet, crafts, DJing and painting, all sorts of stuff going on. In the news details on how you can have your say on the future of the Harlequin Theatre and arts provision across the area. We have the dates and locations of five drop-in events.
What's the council set to do over the next five years? Their plans are out and you can make your comments on them as well. A man who threatened to rob staff at a jewellery shop in Reigate has been jailed. Pilgrim Brewery has taken over another pub. Another local pub is set to be bulldozed to be replaced by a supermarket. I'll tell you where.
Red Hill footballer Millie Bright has become the first woman to hold an honorary title in Reigate and Banstead Borough. In travel news, a reminder of roadworks on West Street Reigate and also the M25 Junction 10. We have the good time guide of events across the area across the week ahead. Planet Reigate stars from Red Hill and our 60-second soundscape before we go at the end of the show.
