Glorious late summer sunshine and a fun-filled programme of activities set the scene for Walford Village Hall’s much-loved annual Fun Day, which drew hundreds of families from across the community on bank holiday Monday 25th August.
A highlight of the day was the ever-popular dog show, which attracted dozens of four-legged competitors much to the delight of the crowd. Children and parents also enjoyed traditional games such as splat the rat, hook-a-duck, sack races, and the egg-and-spoon race, while the on-site play area proved a hit with the youngest visitors.
Alongside the games, guests browsed a wide range of stalls featuring handmade jewellery, crochet, crafts, jams, jellies, and sweet treats. Food was plentiful, with fresh pizza, burgers, fries, cakes, and bakes provided by the local WI. Face painting added a splash of colour, ensuring fun for all ages.
Anthony Jones, Trustee of Walford Village Hall, said:
“We were thrilled to welcome so many people to this year’s Fun Day. It was wonderful to see families enjoying themselves in the sunshine and supporting our village hall. The hall is at the heart of the community, hosting everything from clubs and groups to parties and celebrations.”
