A free family fun day featuring a bouncy castle, treasure hunt and plenty of activities, is to be held at a Wrexham park this week.  

The fun day will be held in Rhosddu Park between 10am and 2pm tomorrow.

A range of Wrexham groups are involved in the day, including AVOW, Dynamic, St James’ Church, Wrexham Methodist Chapel, the Salvation Army, North Wales Police, Play Wrexham, Rhosddu Spar, and Tesco. Wrexham MP Ian Lucas and his office have also worked alongside the groups to get the event set up.

Among the attractions are a treasure hunt, play activities, a bouncy castle refreshments and more. A banner advertising the event has been designed by local young members of children’s charity Dynamic and has been put up at the park to let people know about the day.

Speaking about the fun day, Mr Lucas said: “This event is all about encouraging families to use the park and to feel welcome. There has been a real community spirit among everyone organising the day and we really want to send the message to local families that Rhosddu Park is their park – and that they should feel free to use it.

“I’d like to thank everyone who has worked to make this day happen – I know lots of people are looking forward to it.”

PSCO Charlotte Hodges added: “Everyone from the local community are welcome to come along and enjoy the park for its purpose. It’s been great to see families and local young people use the park more often over the last few months. We hope to see this continue into the summer and beyond!”
