THE FRIENDS of The War Memorial Park have organised a family event with special activities for children.
The group organise a Sunday morning volunteer litter pick in the park and the event will take place on September 8.
Sunday’s event is aimed at making people aware of litter problems in the park and will encourage others to bin litter or take it home.
A poster design competition for children and prizes will be awarded and street artist Katie O will paint the winning designs on the parks main paths.
Local eco-artist Beth Zeen will host a hands-on creative workshop to help children and adults create their own artwork and turn litter into something beautiful.
The day will take place at the Park Visitor Centre from 9.45am until noon.
