The Old Rectory Houghton-le-Spring

The North East Social Enterprise Festival 2018 is coming to Houghton-le-Spring this autumn. The Old Rectory and Rectory Park are hosting the festival where all the crafts, food and activities will be provided by social enterprises which operate and trade for the benefit of communities in the North East (so when they profit, our society profits). Even the fantastic logo was the result of the wonderfully creative team at Alpha Communications, a worker’s cooperative and a social enterprise. Visit the Old Rectory on Social Saturday and the penultimate day of the ancient festival of Houghton-le-Spring, Houghton feast to see a fantastic array of creative ways to combat social problems. Jewellery, music, animals, cakes, furniture, dance, jam, meditation, bakers and business skills will all be displayed.
