Do you enjoy a bit of wartime nostalgia? Then you'll love our WWII-themed event, Swing Back to the 1940s, on Bank Holiday Monday from 11am to 4pm!

There'll be swing dancing in the Chapel, hairdressers to recreate those authentic wartime hairstyles, a street party, stalls selling vintage collectibles and much more. You can even enjoy a pint of our very own real ale, Frame Breaker, in a vintage dimpled pint pot!

Best of all, the event is FREE to attend! Come along for a fun day out for all the family, whatever the weather.

Great news – we’ve raised £713 through the Co-op Local Community Fund so far! Big thanks to all the local Co-op members who have chosen to support our Key Stage 1 and 2 education project - you're adding to our total every time you buy selected Co-op brand products.

We’ve still got 6 weeks to spread the word and get more members to back our cause. Co-op members who haven’t yet chosen a cause in our local community have built up £3,739 – and the more members that choose the museum, the larger our share will be of the final total.

So if you know of anyone who shops in our local Co-op, please ask them to choose the museum as their cause if they haven't already!

The Frame Breakers Ruddington

NEW BEER ALERT!

To celebrate the incredible 45th anniversary of the fantastic Framework Knitters Museum, we will be launching a brand new Nottingham Brewery ale at next Monday's garden party, cunningly dubbed 'Frame Breaker'!

A traditional, tawny-coloured Englsih bitter coming in at a sessionable 3.8% ABV, this is very much the type of beer the framework knitters would have quaffed back in the days when beer was safer to drink than water!

You'll also find 'Frame Breaker' on the bar here at The Frame Breakers Ruddington this weekend, as well as at our sister pubs Plough Inn Radford and The Ned Ludd.

With 20p from every pint sold going to support the Museum's redevelopment and expansion appeal, you can even feel charitable as you sup!
