Sing, dance and bounce into family fun day

Saturday 08 September 2018

Singing, dancing and bouncing in floral surrounds will all be on offer at a special events for kids big and small today.

Charity Les Amis is hosting its second Family Fun Day from 12:00 to 17:00 at Reg’s Garden in St. Brelade and the free event promises to be a jam-packed afternoon full of events and games.

Residents, staff and volunteers of Les Amis will be manning the various stalls, which include colouring tables, children’s party games and a bottle stall.

The event will not only be a chance to enjoy some family time, but also to interact with the residents of Les Amis and understand more about the important work the charity does.

Reg’s Gardens will be brought to life with music and dancing, along with a bouncy castle. Royston South will be in attendance with his balloon magic. Children will also have the opportunity to dress up as superheroes and princesses. For those feeling peckish after an afternoon of fun, BBQ food will also be available.

Jason Loveless, Head of Support Services at Les Amis, said: “This was such a fantastic event last year so we are all very excited to be hosting a family day once again and are extremely grateful to Reg’s Garden for allowing us to hold the event in their grounds.

"While this is a free event to be enjoyed by all the family, the underlying message is one about breaking down social barriers through the act of playing. We hope that by having families come and interact with our residents and experiencing their enjoyment, we can raise the profile and support for such a worthy cause as Les Amis.” 

There will be a raffle and draw taking place on the day, with prizes donated from the public, including the chance to win an Xbox One. For the adults, Les Amis will also be selling tickets for their prestigious Campervan competition held in partnership with Jacksons and Motor Mall. A £20 raffle ticket could offer you a one in 5,000 chance of winning a brand-new VW California Beach camper van.
