SUMMARY:Summer on the Mag
DESCRIPTION:Summer on the Mag\, organised by St Mary Magdalene Church\, will take place on Saturday 13th June from 1pm to 5pm and promises something for all ages. \nVisitors can enjoy family rides and activities\, live music from local performers\, refreshments and a chance to spend time together with neighbours and friends. This year will also see the return of the much-loved animal experience from Pakefield Pastures Mobile Care Farm\, giving families the opportunity to meet a variety of animals\, pet some furry friends and even walk an alpaca. \nThe event is open to everyone and aims to provide an accessible\, welcoming space where local families can enjoy the start of summer together. As part of the day\, visitors will also be invited to bring along a tin or other non-perishable food item for Gorleston Foodbank if they are able to do so\, helping support local people facing hardship. Donations are entirely voluntary\, but organisers hope the festival will be an opportunity not only to celebrate community\, but also to care for neighbours in need. \nEntry to the event is free.

SUMMARY:Balance - Ministry Family Day
DESCRIPTION:A day out for households where an adult is employed in church ministry; such a clergy\, chaplains or children and youth workers. \n\n\n\nIf you work in church ministry and have under 18’s in your household\, then come and enjoy a family day at the Horstead Centre with: \n\n3 exciting outdoor activities\, led by instructors.\nTime to meet\, chill and chat with other families and share your experiences\nBBQ to finish\n\nParticipation for younger children (approximately 4 years+) will depend on the individual child’s ability\, fitting into equipment and confidence. This will be something that the instructors will have to chat to the parent/legal guardian about on the day before the activity starts. \nMembers of your party who are younger than 4 years or would prefer not to take part are still welcome\, but please register them as ‘non-participants’ and some alternative activities will be available. \nRefreshments \nRefreshments and snacks will be provided on arrival and during the day\, but please bring your own packed lunch. \nA catered BBQ will be provided at the end of the day 5pm-6pm. Please let us know when booking if you have any dietary requirements and whether you will be staying for the BBQ. \nHow much does it cost? \nThere is no charge for the day\, we want to treat you! \nBut regarding cancellation…. \nWe offer this event for free as an opportunity for those in ministry to enjoy a day with their family\, we see it as a great investment but it’s disappointing when people cancel at short notice or don’t turn up on the day. The impact of this is that it takes valuable places away from others who may otherwise have booked and costs us financially and in administrative time. If you book and find you can no longer attend before the booking deadline\, please contact us / cancel your booking so the tickets can be released. Cancellations after the booking deadline and no-shows on the day will be charged at £10 per ticket. Thank you for your cooperation in helping us to be good stewards. \nBooking \nAdvance booking is required. The booking deadline is 11.59pm on Sunday 26th April. \nIt is essential you book by the deadline as we have to confirm arrangments with the Horstead Centre. Unfortunately we are unable to take bookings after this date. \nTicket types: \n‘Participant’ ticket – for anyone (over the age of 4 years) who would like to participate in outdoor activities led by the Horstead Centre instructors (subject to the instructors approval). \n‘Non-Participant’ ticket – for anyone under 4 years of age or anyone over 4 years of age in your party who does not wish to participate in any of the instructor led activities.
