Welcome

Welcome to the Ridley ’67 Website.  Ridley Hall was home from home for those who began their teacher education at Northern Counties College in 1967 and found themselves swept out of the big city and set down in rural Northumberland.  What did we think of it, at that time and subsequently?  What difference did it make to our lives and of what influence has it been since?

The number of us who have returned to Ridley for occasional reunions bears some testament to the affection in which we hold the place and each other.  Friendships which have endured since that first college year bear further witness to its influence on lives.  Who amongst us hasn’t revisited since, probably with close family, to walk the Allen Banks and reflect on that particular formative year?

So this is it: the then and now of Ridley Hall.  This is the opportunity for everyone to share their memories, thoughts and photos through this site.  News about forthcoming events and reunions will be posted and all former members of the 1967 Ridley year group are invited to participate.  You never know, we might even ‘find’ some of those elusive folk who have yet to be located.

Thanks to Jonathan who has taken on the role of Administrator.  Also, to Brian and CYPHER MEDIA for the website.
