Details:

Reverend Kate Bottley has been blessing our screens since her first appearance on Gogglebox in 2014. With a cup of tea always to hand, her humour, witticisms and steadfast common sense made her a firm favourite with audiences.

Kate now co-hosts the Good Morning Sunday show on BBC Radio 4 with Jason Mohammed, has appeared on Songs of Praise a number of times, and was a regular guest on Pause for Thought on the Chris Evans Breakfast Show, as well as appearing on Celebrity MasterChef.

Kate will be joining us at our historic St Chad’s Parish Church to talk about her road to faith and her philosophy of life. The audience will also be able to ask their own questions about Kate herself and wider issues of faith and wellbeing.

Suitable for: Ages 14+

The festival box office is located at Touchstones Rochdale. Open Tuesday - Saturday 10am - 5pm.

Rochdale Literature & Ideas Festival is aimed at celebrating and promoting the Maskew Collection of classic literature and philosophy at Rochdale Central Library, encouraging people to engage with books and ideas. Rochdale couple, Annie and Frank Maskew, met in Rochdale Library in the 1950s and shared a passion for reading and thinking. They left a sum of money to be used on resources and events related to literature and philosophy to ensure classic works are available for future generations.

Entry fee: Book in advance - £10
