Not long to go now until our Community Fun Day! The wet weather may have made a return, but Sunday’s forecast is looking much brighter and we’re hoping it stays that way.

In our main arena you’ll find Mayhew School of Dance, Steve the Juggler, kids’ sports day activities, a fun dog show judged by the lovely Jules from , and the brilliant Preacher the Storyteller bringing stories to life with music, movement and plenty of fun.

Across the Rec there’ll be even more to enjoy, including free face painting, free inflatables, Andrea’s animals, a toddler area, the Free2Talk music van, plus a fantastic range of local community groups and stallholders.

We can’t wait to see you there.

Sunday 6 September, 2pm–5pm, Far Cotton Rec.
