Published: 11/02/2016

Flintshire County Council’s Leisure Services is launching their “Have a go fortnight” with a Family Fun and Information Day on Monday, 15 February at Connah’s Quay Civic Hall on Wepre Drive. This is a free event and there will be information stalls, fun sessions and refreshments, so come along and find out what Flintshire can offer to help you improve your health and well-being. Doors open at 10am and the event will run until 4pm. You’ll also have the chance to let us know what you think by participating in our Active Travel consultation aimed at identifying healthier and alternative ways to travel around the county. Cllr, Kevin Jones, Cabinet Member for Waste Strategy, Public Protection and Leisure, said, “This event kicks off a two-week period where our Countys residents can try out various activities, many of them for free. Activities include yoga, blood pressure checks, tai chi classes, a 1940s tea dance and so much more. Sessions are open and welcoming to everyone and are really great for beginners.” The Family Fun and Information Day will include a cheerleading display by Buckley Cheerleaders and the information stands include: Public Health Wales & Stop Smoking Wales, RND Memory Matters, Flintshire Family Information Service, Flintshire Leisure Services, Active Travel countywide consultation and Flintshire County Council Libraries and Arts as well as many others.
