The Friends of Real Lancashire are currently compiling their annual list of Lancashire Day events from all over the County Palatine and beyond.We would like to hear of any schools,organisations,pubs or individuals who have planned an event to take place on the day or during that week.

As well as showing loyalty to our red rose county,Lancashire Day is an opportunity to raise money for charity and for businesses to promote Lancashire produce.At the beginning of November,events are posted on our website (www.forl.co.uk),details are sent to the local Press and also our members so they may support an event in their locality.

Events usually include: Lancashire Day proclamations,Lancashire nights with traditional beer,hot pot and entertainment,lunches,afternoon teas,shops with Lancashire produce,restaurants with a special Lancashire menu,exibitions,heritage walks,quiz nights and reading of Lancashire dialect.

Remember if you were born between the River Duddon in the North and the River Mersey in the South you are first and foremost a Lancastrian.

Please email your events with full details and telephone contact number to;chairman@forl.co.uk
