The Southport Charity Fun Festival 2011

WELL done to the Fun Fest chairman James Grundy for putting on one of the best ones yet, over Saturday, 4 June and Sunday, 5 June 2011, on Victoria Park, Southport. This year the money raised will go to charities the following:- Able Bodied Club, Claire House, Southport Alzheimer’s Society, Southport Lifeboat, Southport Physically Handicapped, Queenscourt Hospice, Southport St John Ambulance and the Southport Stroke Association. We headed over to see this free to attended event on the Saturday to get a few snaps. The attractions at the show included things like fairground rides, stalls, Lifeboat, Fire Engine, Tug Of War Challenge, a junior football tournament, live music, West Lancs. dog display and lots more. That was only on the Saturday!  Sunday, unfortunately we could not get a photographer to cover had knights of the Historia Normannis Southport, archery and the 'It’s A Knockout' on top of all that. Oscar Pet Foods, who had a stall at the event said:-  "We had good crowds and people enjoyed themselves. The organisers this year have done a fantastic job to keep this event going and they require more help then ever to do this." James added:- "There’s a phenomenal amount of work that goes into putting an the event like this on. It’s good to see a park full of people enjoying themselves, but we need more help to keep this event alive next year. Please contact me via the editor of the Southport Visitor, our Vice Chairman Andrew Brown, if you would like to join in our community run event."
