Something exciting has arrived at Magna. 🧡

This morning we were thrilled to have join us to unveil their 30 Cogs project, a community art piece designed to celebrate the Hospice’s 30th anniversary, Magna’s 25th anniversary and RNN Group’s 10th anniversary.

This installation has been designed and built by students at Rotherham College, bringing together creativity, learning and community. Each cog represents a year for Rotherham Hospice, sponsored by a range of businesses in Rotherham and beyond.

Funds raised by this project help support the incredible work that Rotherham Hospice does within the community, and there’s still a handful of cogs available to sponsor. If you’re a local business interested in getting involved, get in touch with the Hospice team:

Reminder: The Rotherham Summer Reading Awards are returning to Magna tomorrow! 📚

We’re looking forward to celebrating with hundreds of Rotherham families in our Big Hall. 🧡

If you’re looking to join us for the day, we expect that our car park is going to be a little busier than usual. A member of staff will be on hand to keep things organised, and our tram train station will be operational as usual. 🚋

Santa came to do a site visit today, and let’s just say… he left things in a bit of a mess! 🎅 😬

But don’t worry, we’ve packed everything up that he left behind, and we’ll keep it safely tucked away until Lunch with Santa on Sunday 20th December. 🎁

Join us at Magna for a magical festive experience, perfect for families to get into the spirit before the 25th. At each table, you’ll be given a shared buffet platter featuring a range of festive savouries and desserts, and Santa himself will be there to say hello and give a gift to your child.

Tickets start from £14.95 + booking fees. Book now:
