Bridge Community Centre to Host an Open Day on Saturday 19th August

August 15, 2017

The Bridge Community Centre in Railway Street, Lisburn will be holding an open day on Saturday 19th August and residents are invited to come along and enjoy the fun at this free event from 11.00am to 3.00pm.

This centrally located community facility will have a variety of activities available to entertain all ages including balloon modelling, Bricks4Kidz educational workshops, a dress up photo booth, massage therapies and henna tattoos.  If you are interested in craft then why not try the junk sculpture arts kids’ craft, the printed card making or butterflies and dragonflies craft activities and then take your finished items home to show family and friends.

Alderman James Tinsley, Chairman of the Council’s Leisure & Community Development Committee, speaking about the upcoming event, said: “This free event is the ideal opportunity for residents to meet up with local organisations, which offer craft activities, massage treatments and advice on health and wellbeing.  The range of health organisations that will be providing heath checks include Diabetes UK NI, Cancer Focus NI and Action Cancer. 

“The health and wellbeing of residents is important to the Council and I am very pleased that the South Eastern Trust, First Health, ASCERT, the Alzheimer’s Society, Sound Healing Spa and Pancreatic Cancer UK will be joining the Council’s Sports Development team to offer advice on improving your health and staying healthy.

“So come along, enjoy the fun and then have a bite to eat in one of Lisburn’s many eateries or visit Wallace Park for a relaxing walk or let the young ones burn off any excess energy in the Play Park or outdoor gym.  I would advise that as there is no car parking available onsite at the Bridge Community Centre please park in one of the off-street car parks in Lisburn City Centre.”
