Want to win some Halloween sweets! All you need to do is figure out the Halloween themed word… Just pick up your activity sheet at the management suite and locate all the QR codes around the centre. Scan the QR code and it will show you a letter to fill in the missing word. Find all the QR codes > find all the letters > you have your Halloween word! Once filled in the correct word, take it back to the Management Suite (just down the side of Vision Express) and you will be handed your scarily sweet prize!!! Best of luck!

You were brought into this world for a purpose. And your futures — all of them — have been decided. Royal & Derngate, Rose Theatre, Bristol Old Vic, and Malvern Theatres present Never Let Me Go Kazuo Ishiguro’s international best-selling novel arrives on stage in this world premiere of Suzanne Heathcote’s gripping new adaptation. What if you discovered your whole reason for being was not about your life but about making someone else’s possible? Your dreams, your desires, your love for another, all of them irrelevant in a world that values only what you give, without question or condition, to someone you’ve never met and will never know. Memory and reality collide in this stunning new staging that challenges us to think about what it means to be human. What it means to have hope and heart — to love and to lose.
