Fleetwood Museum Trust and Healthier Fleetwood invite you to their annual FREE beach craft event. Following on from pirate ships, mermaids and a tribute to the RNLI in 2024, this year's theme is The Kracken!
This mythical beast has never been seen in Fleetwood before ... as far as we know ... do you dare to unleash it from the sea?
Join the volunteers on the beach, behind Marine Hall and the YMCA Sports Centre. There's no need to book, just turn up and have fun!
Suitable for all ages - younger children should be accompanied by parent/carer.
Equipment will be provided.
Please wear suitable clothing/footwear and wear sun protection for the beach and the weather conditions on the day.
The event will be photographed and filmed by drone to be shared on social media. If you do not wish to be included, please let a volunteer know on the day.
