The children’s area at our Kilnsey showcase event is now starting to take shape.

We will be joined by Peter J Murray, author of the spooky Mokee Joe books. Peter gained the inspiration for creating the spooky characters that feature in his books by reading to children and that’s exactly what he’ll be doing at Kilnsey. Peter lives with his wife on the edge of Ilkley Moor and says that the hills and limestone scenery locally offer a constant source of relaxation and inspiration, in fact they provide the setting for his next book!

Another confirmed booking for the children’s area is chef Andrew Wood who will be doing some entertaining and educational cooking with the children.

This important area of the showcase has come about with the help of the Kilnsey Show committee, Barclays Bank and Yorkshire Water.
