FREE Family Fun & Games​

This is a new programme on the Rec running every Saturday afternoon from 2-4pm from 14 June to 30 August – everyone is welcome.

 

With great support from the Council, this will be organised by volunteers from our community. We’ve had a fantastic response so far and many hands make light work so any others who would like to help, please do contact hello.folar@gmail.com. Anyone 15+ can be a helper – free training in first aid, safeguarding and running activities including a DBS check is a boon for those doing of DoE at school, looks great on a CV and is good fun for adults happy to help make a difference in the community.

​

The fun starts for real on Saturday 14 June from 2-4pm on the Rec on the field in front of the café – if you’ve missed the training and keen to help, don’t worry, just turn up and we can provide an induction on the day.

 

 

​MUSIC on the Rec- your opportunity to perform!

​New for this year – two evenings of music on the Rec. This will be a free event running from 5-8pm on 5th and 12th of July 2025 in the fenced off grass area in the children’s playground. We are delighted to have the support of local bands as well as community choirs and school groups.

 

We are looking for local talent who would like to play on either evening (any age). There will be a stage along with a drum kit, speakers and mics available. Please contact hello.folar@gmail.com if you would like to join in.
