Parents searching for ways to keep young children’s diaries busy this summer will be pleased to know that the ‘Saddleworth Handmade Festival’ is returning on 26th July. The Princess & Pirate Party event, from 12pm until 4pm, is a free to enter handmade market dedicated to children with a private party room for ticket holders.

Quack, Quack

For families not wanting to stray too far from home, the Duck Race & Fun Day at Chadderton Hall Park offers something for everyone. On 22nd August thousands of rubber ducks will be released into the River Irk, each with the chance of winning their owner a prize.

 

The Duck Race & Fun Day, from 12pm to 3pm, is in aid of Doctor Kershaw’s Hospice – Oldham’s only specialist care facility for adults with life limiting illnesses.

 

Alongside the excitement of the races, there will be a host of attractions and entertainment on the day, including live performances and music, inflatables, carnival stalls, food, drink, and much more.
