The Third Annual Station Film Festival.
Once again it is our great pleasure to present you with a highly diverse programme of films that we hope you will judge to be entertaining, disturbing, inspirational and somewhat challenging, pretty much in equal measure.
As in past years, our selection for 2010 has been made in an effort to capture an exciting cross-section of films that haven't, for the most part, been widely screened in our part of the world. For regular Station Cinema fans they represent a completely new set of offerings – 14 films in all. 7 films will rotate during the first week of the festival and these will be followed by 7 completely new pictures for week two.
THREE SPECIAL FILM FESTIVAL EVENTS
Saturday, 11th September, J Blakeson, the writer and director of The Disappearance of Alice Creed will be at The Station Cinema to discuss his highly praised film and answer questions from the audience. The critics have described Alice Creed as "...the most original thriller of the year." J Blakeson grew up in North Yorkshire and we are delighted that he's able to visit The Station for this event.
Saturday, 18th September, The Station is honoured to host The UK Premiere Performance of the Canadian film At Home By Myself...With You. This charming picture tells the story of Romy Scott, a young agoraphobic woman who has been housebound for six years. It was made with the tiniest of budgets, just $44,000, all of which was raised from hundreds of modest donations. Be part of the first UK audience to see this amusing, sweet-natured film; suitably shown in the very amusing and sweet-natured Richmond, North Yorkshire.
Monday, 20th September, documentary film-maker, Jez Lewis, will be on hand to talk about his award-winning film, Shed your Tears and Walk Away. Motivated by a desire to understand why so many of his former friends have lost their lives through drug and drink addiction, Jez Lewis returned to his home town of Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire. The result is a troubled yet touching social commentary.Film Schedule

Black Rat Charity Rideout
Venue: Meet at Marne Barracks, Catterick Garrison
The Black Rat Fund would like to ask you to join our Black Rat Charity Rideout to help support the serving soldiers of the Black Rats (4th Mechanized Brigade), as well as their immediate families.
The biking community in the UK has consistently shown incredible support for the Armed Forces. Events such as the Allied Memorial Remembrance Ride, the Mother's Day Ride through Wootton Bassett, and the mass gathering at the National Memorial Arboretum in Alrewas, Staffordshire all clearly illustrate the biking community's desire to show their solidarity with, and respect for serving, veteran, wounded and fallen members of the Armed Forces.
The Black Rat Fund assists through direct welfare and compassionate grants to individuals or families in need or distress, as well as supporting community projects, events and activities which aim to improve and enhance the lives of soldiers and families who are part of the Brigade.
With the Black Rats recent deployment to Afghanistan we want to make sure that the Fund is able to provide whatever assistance is needed to any injured soldiers, both now and in the future.
To make sure that we have funds in place to provide as much support as possible the Black Rat Fund is inviting members of the biking community from all over the United Kingdom to come and take part in the Black Rat Rideout. Bikes will meet at Marne Barracks, which is part of Catterick Garrison, and will then set off in groups to do a great circuit of the Garrison and some parts of the surrounding area including Richmond. The ride circuit is about 22 miles long and will take approximately 45 minutes to complete.

DALES JAM
Dales Jam was formed in 2003 by a group of people of all ages and musical abilities, who wanted a time and a place to meet up and play music. Since then, under the guidance of a professional music director, Richard Ormrod, Dales Jam has grown steadily in members. Members meet weekly for a workshop and play at gigs ranging from festivals to concert halls.
Dales Jam started out primarily as a jazz based group, and much of what they play is still rooted there, but it's world music based with African rhythms, Klezmer, Cuban, and an occasional veer off into Stevie Wonder arrangements, before taking a trip to Japan! Much of the music is arrangemd by Richard, but members also contribute their own pieces or arrangements.
