Looking Back
Presentations
Hi! My name is Chris Helme, for 30 years I was a Police Constable in West Yorkshire Police. For almost 26 years of my service I was working in and around my home town of Brighouse.
I have written, given presentations and held exhibitions about the history of Brighouse for 35 years.
Since I retired from the police service in 2001 I have been commissioned to write two books about Brighouse and the Sunny Vale Pleasure Gardens, the West Riding’s Alton Towers of the 19th century.
I have just completed a third commissioned book ‘What Brass Bands Did For Me’ which will be available in October 2009. This is a nostalgia book which will appeal to all those like me, who have been in and around the brass band world for many years.
You will find lots of information about me and my books, my speaking engagements, Sunday Bandstand, my weekly brass band radio programme and lots more.
So don’t dash off, have a look round first, and then tell your friends you have found me.
Chris
