Britain's What's On Event Guide
Family Holiday Charity holiday memories event
The team from Family Holiday Charity is encouraging people to head to the seafront this weekend (8th and 9th June) and join them in sharing their own special family holiday memories and stories as part of its new Holiday Moments campaign.
The charity will be in its gazebo at the charity box on Weymouth Promenade from 9.30am until 5.30pm both days. The team will have story boards to share and are inviting people to come along, have their photo taken, and share their favourite holiday stories in a memory book.
The event is part of a new UK-wide campaign, Holiday Moments launched by Family Holiday Charity which aims to highlight the magic of small moments that can make a holiday extraordinary for families who are facing life’s toughest challenges and raise awareness of the charity’s work.
Kat Lee, CEO of Family Holiday Charity said: “We are very much looking forward to heading to Weymouth to hear everyone’s own special holiday memories. Weymouth is renowned as a beautiful seaside town full of charm so I am sure we will hear some wonderful stories from everyone’s family adventures.
“This is the first time we have ever visited other places to meet people and are really looking forward to seeing everyone and talking about our new Holiday Moments campaign. We know from experience that every family needs that time together to grow, to play, to just ‘be’, together. Even a moment can make a lifetime of difference, especially to those who are facing life’s toughest challenges, such as mental health issues, domestic abuse, and homelessness, so that is why we help families to have a holiday. Every family needs time together to have fun, try new things, and see each other smile. We know that families who get away together, grow together – into stronger happier, and more confident families.
