Safe Places are holding a community family fun day on Friday, August 12 in Wrexham city centre.
The event in Queen’s Square promises to be fun for all the family with music, fair rides, stalls, games, face painting and more. There will also be a performance by the One Love Choir in addition to wellbeing and fitness sessions for children as well as the chance to try out the virtual autism bus.
The day is aimed at raising awareness and also some funds for Safe Places following a difficult period during the pandemic.

The ‘Safe Places’ scheme ensures that everyone in Wrexham has a safe place they can go to if they ever feel anxious, stressed, or panicked.
Local businesses can sign up to take part in the scheme and display a sign that registered users can recognise and know they can get help from inside.
It gives people the security of knowing they, or people they care about, have a safe place to go in times of need. The safe place can be a shop, pub, library, council building or any place that is publicly available. A sticker will identify the place as a “Safe Place” and it will also appear in the national database.
If you’re interested in having a stall at this event, please call 01978 298475 or 01978 298550
