BGU Spring Celebration Event

BGU Spring Celebration Event
We think it’s fair to say that our BGU Spring Celebration Event in Queen’s Park on Saturday 10th May was a great success! Huge thanks to all involved. A great variety of stalls and activities, great music from Soyaband and Aquaphibians and dancing from Leap To Your Feet. All this and the beautiful sunny weather led to a thoroughly enjoyable event, where we estimate we had 400-500 visitors

Here is a link to our Events page which has details of the activities and stalls

We are currently compiling a video of the photos and videos taken on the day, which will be available in our next Newsletter
