A special Family Fun Day on Thursday, March 27 is being organised by the Suffolk Coastal Local Strategic Partnership (LSP) at Yoxford’s primary school and village hall from 10am to 3pm.

Over 30 different stands will be on offer on the day targeted at visitors of all ages, as well as a host of other activities and attractions particularly for young people, with free admission and most of the activities costing nothing as well.

“This will be third year that the LSP has held special events aimed at helping local people get more out of life and it is the first time we are visiting Yoxford. We will have an excellent mixture of fun activities and useful information on offer on the day, with local groups involved and promoting themselves,” said Cllr Ray Herring, Chairman of the Suffolk Coastal LSP.

“Organisations like Suffolk Coastal, the County Council, the police and the health services will have stands giving people information about services and the help that is on offer, and there will also be lots of fun activities many of which are aimed at young people.

“The goal is to help people get more out of their life by finding out how they can improve their health and well-being, whether it is at a local club or by becoming a volunteer, or adopting a healthier way of living. I hope people will come from far and wide to enjoy what should be a really fun and interesting day,” added Cllr Herring.

Among the organisations on show will be Age Concern, Friends of East Suffolk Performing Arts, the Rural Coffee Caravan, Wenhaston Girls Choir, CYDS and SCTV, Saxmundham Rotary Club, Coastal Home Start, and Alde Valley Food Adventures.

For those of all ages looking to burn off some energy, there is trampolining, football, tennis coaching, a mobile skate park, an Easter egg hunt, a guided walk, healthy exercise sessions, and a games zone.
