Hundreds of people attended the 'Rock the Clocktower' event last weekend. 

The event, held at the John Summers Clock Tower took place from 11am till 10pm on Saturday. 

The site of the former Tata Steel HQ has been restored and regenerated by the Enbarr Foundation - which has turned it into a community hub.

The £5.2m project continues to go from strength to strength - and work on it will continue into 2023. 

The Rock the Clocktower had a range of live music and entertainment, as well as the unveiling of a carving commemorating the Jubilee event which was held earlier this year. 

Mark Isherwood MS unveiled the statue alongside Enbarr Foundation's director, Vicki Roskams.

Following on from the sad passing of HRH Queen Elizabeth, it was fitting that the day and unveiling went ahead.

Vicki, who wanted the event to go ahead to commemorate the Queen, said the day proved to be quite emotional. 

She added: "We had a wall of images of the Queen in memory of her and we had plenty of people saying we had handled it very well. 

"We didn't know if the event was going to go ahead or not, but after discussing it, we felt it would be what she would've wanted.

"It was quite emotional when the carving was unveiled, with the crown, the horse and the inscription to the Queen. It was very fitting and even led to some people shedding a tear."

As well as paying their respects to the Queen, those in attendance enjoyed a day of family fun, with requests already coming in for the event to take place again next year 

Vicki added: "The event had a great family feel, we've had some really nice comments from people about how safe the event was and how relaxing it has been. 

"That is what we want to do here, we want a place for people and families to come and feel safe. 

"It's all about having a positive impact on the community."
