Our End of Summer Fair last month at the Cliftonville and Coatdyke Community Centre was an incredible success! The local community came together in a spectacular way, enjoying fantastic food, exciting stalls, and fun activities for the whole family to enjoy. And to top it off, the sun decided to join us just in time to kick off the festivities!
We had a variety of activities available for all the kids, Big and Small, to enjoy, including a mini zoo, bouncy castle and rides, face painting, balloon modelling,
We also had a range of talented artists who came along to pamper our guests with a variety of complementary treatments on offer, from face painting and glitter tattoos to nails and hairstyling. There was something there for everyone.
And let's not forget about the delicious free food available for all attendees. From hotdogs to Waffles, we made sure that no one went hungry.
This event not only provided the kids with some fun time in the sun after school, with a range of rides and activities available to them, but also gave their grown-ups the opportunity to speak to us and some of our partners, including Skills Development Scotland, Diamonds in the Community, CAB Coatbridge, One Parent Families Scotland and more, allowing them to find out what support was available to them.
Thanks to the Incredible efforts of everyone involved in the planning and execution of the event, we are thrilled to say that approximately 125 North Lanarkshire residents joined us at the event, leading to 29 referrals to our service, with 5 already registered.
The event also saw a boost in community spirit in the local area, setting the stage for even more fantastic events in the future!
Speaking of future events, prepare for various spooky events coming to communities across North Lanarkshire this October! Make sure to check them out.
