A community group is inviting people from across Pendle to a ‘Winter Wonderland’ event in Nelson.

The family fun day will take place on Saturday, December 14 inside a heated marquee at Victoria Park off Carr Road.

The event is organised by East Lancashire Community Action Project (ELCAP), a registered charity and Pendle Community Radio.

Festivities begin at 3pm and run through until 8pm.

With free entry, the Winter Wonderland offers the perfect opportunity to immerse in the spirit of the season, surrounded by family, friends and members of your local community.

The event will feature a wide range of activities for visitors to enjoy including fun fair rides, inflatable games, giant penalty shootout, face painting, food stalls, hot chocolate, prize giveaways and much more.

Community Engagement Manager at the Minhaj Welfare Foundation, Mohammad Jabbar said: “The Winter Wonderland aims to promote community cohesion and bring together people of all backgrounds to enjoy the end of year festivities.

“All proceeds from the event will go towards Minhaj Welfare Foundation’s Orphan Care Projects supporting vulnerable children in need. Minhaj Welfare Foundation, the charity partner of the Winter Wonderland, is a worldwide humanitarian development organisation, working for over 35 years to break the cycle of poverty, promote social justice and provide disaster relief.

“East Lancashire Community Action Project would like to thank Nelson Town Council for their generous financial support and all the local businesses who have kindly sponsored the Winter Wonderland event.”
