Fun in the sun at Hillsborough Arena

27th September 2022

  • Almost 70 families attended our Family Fun Day at the end of August. The event was, as always, hugely oversubscribed, with twice as many people wanting to attend as we had places.

    Families relaxed at Hillsborough Arena in glorious late-summer sunshine, knowing their children would not be excluded or judged. We worked hard to offer a wide range of accessible activities, and to keep queues, crowds and noise to a minimum.

    The biggest hits included a fire engine, bungee trampolines, inflatable gladiators, craft stalls and adapted cycles.

    We are very grateful to the Facey Family Foundation for funding our event this year. We stretched this funding even further by drawing on the support of our fantastic partner organisations who provided activities, resources and volunteers.
