Refreshments are available from South Park cafe which overlooks the bandstand or bring a blanket and chairs and enjoy your own picnic.

South Park is packed with things to do for all the family. A children's playground, fishing lake, fitness trail, 18 hole pitch and putt, tennis courts, sports area, newly opened skate/BMX park as well as wide open spaces to walk and stunning views to enjoy.

Grateful thanks go to all the sponsors whose contributions have made these events possible.
