Hundreds enjoy spring fun day in Rhosddu Park

Hundreds of people turned out to enjoy the spring sunshine and attractions earlier this week at a popular community event.

The latest Rhosddu Park Fun Day, held on Tuesday, May 28, was organised by Wrexham MP Ian Lucas in partnership with several local organisations.

After a few morning rain showers, the clouds parted and the park was bathed in sun for the afternoon.

The event was free to attend and featured a wide array of stalls and family-friendly attractions, including a bouncy castle, treasure hunt and dog show.

There were also craft stalls, tennis activities, storytelling and a performance from the Wrexham Singing Hands choir. The local Spar, Tesco and Asda stores provided free refreshments.

Wrexham’s MP organises the fun days twice a year, working closely with the Salvation Army, AVOW, North Wales Police, St James’ Church, the Community Church, Methodist Chapel and Rhosddu Community Council.

Mr Lucas said: “It was good to hear the Rhosddu Park Fun Day was another big success, with hundreds of local people coming together and having a great time. That’s what this event is all about and I’m very proud of it.

“The day itself was the culmination of several months’ of hard work and involves a lot of teamwork.

“It was only possible thanks to the efforts of the local community and our local partners – and I’d like to thank them very much.”
