Uplifting, big hearted and utterly hilarious, Learning to Fly sees James tell the story of a remarkable friendship he made when he was a lonely, unhappy teenager with the scary old lady who lived in the spooky house on his street.

It’s about connection, no matter what the obstacles; about love’s eternal struggle with time; about music and its ability to heal.

It’s also about her last wish: to get high once before she died.

Open to all amateur bakers who live in the South Lakeland area.

Top prize for adults and children.

Closing date for entries Friday 14th October.
