The free to attend days are suitable for the whole family but mainly aimed at under 12s. They offer a while range of fun activities including games, crafts, sports, face painting.

The days are run by Imago with support from local town and parish councils and are a great way for families to save money and get together in an active, safe and friendly environment.

Cabinet member for People and Places, Cllr Lesley Dyball, said: “These events really succeed in bringing the whole community together. They’ve been really popular with the children and best of all they are completely free.”

Several other events have already been held and everyone of them so far has been attended by Chairman of Sevenoaks District Council, Cllr John Edwards-Winser who said: “Each day has been different, and it’s been wonderful to see the children and parents getting involved.”

There are still lots of free family fun days over the summer holidays. You can find out where your nearest one is by logging on to this website: www.sevenoaks.gov.uk/familyfundays
