I was due to have my hair cut at Menutiae in Ossett, but they've had to cancel (paternity leave) and they're unable to book me in again before I need it, which is by the 11th at the latest.

Can you please suggest other good hairdressers in the area? Ideally somewhere where I can have a bit of a consultation about what to go for first.

Went to take the dog to Sandal castle this morning in the car. Came down Barnsley road with the intention of turning up Manygates lane but the road is cordoned off and there's police tape near the Brookhouse aswell. Cop cars all over. Nothing on Yappapp on Instagram.

Hi , I’m looking for the best gym subscription to buy in Wakefield town, ideally it will come with a guest pass or just two cheap subscriptions that let me and my partner go as much as we like

We’re not crazy fitness freaks I’m just looking for somewhere to lose weight and tone up a bit as much as I want

Hi all,

I'm travelling from Kirkgate Monday at 8am and need full day parking. I see the station is super reasonably priced but how is it for availability? I'd arrive around 7:45am?

Thanks

Hi everyone.

I’m trying to get in touch with a Nick (possibly Nicholas) Smith.

He would now likely be 45+ and was a lorry driver in the early 2000s. I believe he was originally from the Doncaster area and spent some time lodging in Ipswich during 2003.

If you know someone who matches that description, I’d really appreciate it if you could ask them to send me a private message, or message me yourself. Even if you know more than one Nick Smith please still let me know, anything helps.

It’s regarding something important that I believe he deserves to know.

Thanks very much. 🙏

Hiya guys, first post here but I recently discovered the yapp app and Im a nosey begger that loves the gossip but I don't understand how yapp app works, is there a specific code for Wakefield yapp app or something, I don't get it lol. Help a bored new graduate in need 🤣🙏🏼

Hi all, some councils around the country have created a map of cold spaces that people can use to get out of the sun and recouperate (e.g., Welcome Spaces | Leeds.gov.uk).

I haven't seen this resource for Wakefield so thought we could list some places we know that are good to cool down in.

To start:

Wakefield One Library has air con, they don't offer water but there's the cafe in the building. They're open 6 days a week Wakefield Library - Wakefield Council

I Volunteer for a food kitchen local to the area and we are struggling to source coffee cups , with the cost of coffee itself etc and the warm weather its not really viable, if anyone could point us in the direction of somewhere who might be able to help we'd greatly appreciate it.

Has anyone been to Cineworld in Wakefield this week?

Am thinking of having a cinema day on Friday and am wondering how cold it is in there.
