The first of an East Lancashire borough's summer activity events kicked off in style last week.

Let's Move Hyndburn took over Accrington's Bullough Park on Friday, July 26.

More than 300 people turned up to get active.

The highlight of the event was the cricket taster sessions led by Lancashire Cricket Foundation Dynamos, providing participants of all skill levels with the opportunity to learn new techniques and improve their cricket skills.

"It was heart-warming to see people of all ages come together to enjoy a day filled with fun and activities."
