Beyond Radio to appear at Lancaster City Council Family Fun Day including bin wagon pull

Beyond Radio will appear at a free family fun day in Lancaster where teams will take part in a 7.5 tonne bin wagon pull.

Lancaster City Council's Family Fun Day will take place on Sunday, September 28, from 10am to 4pm, at the athletics track behind Salt Ayre Leisure Centre.

Beyond Radio will provide music and Beyond Bear will appear.

Our team will also preside, and provide live commentary, as council staff and partner organisations take part in a high-energy fundraising truck pull between 1pm and 2pm.

Teams will attempt to haul a 7.5-tonne bin wagon an impressive 25 metres along the track. 

There will be stalls hosted by charities, community groups and council partners, NHS health checks and lots of fun activities, including a bouncy castle; giant games, creative arts and crafts, and energetic family circuits around the athletics track.

Spectators are encouraged to show their support by cheering on the teams as they take on this mighty challenge and can donate by visiting the stalls throughout the day.

The Family Fun Day coincides with Salt Ayre Leisure Centre’s Free Fitness Open Weekend, providing visitors with the opportunity to enjoy free fitness classes and access to the gym, membership and spa special offers, competitions, and more.

“The Family Fun Day is all about celebrating the fantastic community spirit we have across the district," said Will Griffith, Chief Officer for Environment and Place at Lancaster City Council.

“We’re proud to bring together local organisations, charities, and residents for not only a great day out, but to support important causes and promote wellbeing.

“Whether you’re cheering on the truck pull teams, enjoying the music and activities at the track, or discovering the excellent facilities Salt Ayre has to offer, there’s something for everyone."
