Children in Taunton are being invited to a free day of fun.
Blackbrook Leisure Centre and Spa is hosting the event on Friday, August 14.
It will run from 11am to 2pm and will feature a packed schedule of outdoor activities aimed at children aged four to 11.
Lucy Gray, general manager at Everyone Active, said: "We are thrilled to invite families and children from our local community to this fantastic free open day, which is set to be great fun and full of activities open to the whole community.
"There will be plenty of opportunities to keep active, and if you’ve always wanted to try a new sport such as tennis, this is the perfect opportunity to give it a go.
"We encourage anyone thinking of coming along to get involved and enjoy taking part while being with the local community."
Activities will include tennis, inflatables, padel, circus skills, assault courses, arts and crafts, and bouncy castles.
Face painting, balloon artists, and a live samba band will add to the festive atmosphere.
A qualified first aid trainer will deliver a free CPR workshop, covering how to carry out CPR and use a defibrillator.
Attendees can also enjoy mini hand and arm massages courtesy of the centre’s spa team.
The first 250 children will receive a free snack bag, and ice cream will be available to buy from a visiting van.
Advance booking, which can be made at everyoneactive.com/news/free-community-fun-day, is required.
Cllr Federica Smith-Roberts, Somerset Council’s lead member for communities, said: "This is a great idea and will give children a chance to try out fun ways to keep active.
"Our leisure centres are vital in keeping our community fit and well mentally and physically.
"I hope families head to Blackbrook and enjoy a fantastic day out."
