A bicycle and road safety event for children is being held next month.

Youngsters aged between 10 and 18 can bring their bikes to get them security marked before learning about bike road safety.

“We have a very big focus on providing activities for young people in the villages and hope that this day can lead on to further projects. We actively encourage young people to come along and enjoy this great community fun event.”

There is no need to register before the day but those taking part need to bring their bikes, cycle helmet and a packed lunch. A cycle helmet will be provided to people without one.
