Two members of the Ormskirk Gingerbread team were lucky enough to be invited to the opening of the Catalyst Building by Princess Anne at Edge Hill University last month.
And after the unveiling of the plaque in the main entrance, Dr. John Cater presented the Princess with a basket of Ormskirk goodies which included one of OCP’s unique ceramic gingerbread models - maybe, right now, this souvenir of Ormskirk’s heritage is taking pride of place on a royal mantelpiece at Gatcombe Park!
OCP and the University have built up an excellent working relationship over recent years, with Edge Hill playing an important role in the Gingerbread Festival; students and staff have worked to present dramatic productions with last year’s entertainment holding the children enthralled.
This year’s Gingerbread Festival will take place on Sunday 14th July and EHU’s new play will be performed during the day, and a Flash Mob event will also take place at various locations in the town.
Not sure of “Flash Mob”? Then come to Ormskirk on 14th July and all will be revealed - and prepare to be impressed!

Much as I like the little ceramic gingerbread fellas - I'd love one for the garden - I can't help but wonder how long it will be before it ends up in H.M.R.R.B. (Her Majesty's Royal recycling bin)
