More than 480 people braved the weather to enjoy a free day of fun and games in Bexhill and even the MP joined in.

Bexhill and Battle MP Huw Merrimen joined visitors of all ages at Heart of Sidley’s (HoS) Family Fun Day on Canada Way recreation ground on Friday, August 19.

A petting zoo, bouncy castles, sumo suits and martial arts classes were on offer plus much more and HoS’ Linda Seddon said everyone had a great time.

“We were lucky to have such great volunteer support from local housing association, AmicusHorizon, to make the day go smoothly. Lots of people made enquiries about how to be more involved in the Heart of Sidley. The Fun Day helped to raise awareness of the project and generate interest in the plans that we have to achieve big things with the £1m Big Lottery grant.”
