A family festival is taking place in Ravenscourt Park this Saturday (19 July) featuring live music, dance classes, pony rides, a funfair and food from around the world

The council says it is holding CommUnity Day as a way of saying thanks to all the local people and groups that help make H&F a stronger, safer and kinder place to live.

The event runs from 11am to 5pm to join the party and up on the main stage, you can catch a performance from the New Generation Steel Orchestra, music from BIMM artists Delroy Joseph and Anna O'Hare, and dance classes by DanceWest – all hosted by drag queen Chanel No. 5.

In addition, there will be face painting, circus skills workshops, funfair rides, story time with expert storytellers and arts and crafts with JK Arts.

On the day, more than 30 local organisations and services will be on hand to speak to, to help with anything you need or just general information about what's on offer locally.

A fire engine will be visiting and there will be a chance to speak to local London Fire Brigade firefighters and sit behind the wheel.

Charities taking part include The Sulgrave Youth Club, Motion4Kids, Boom Sports, TimeGivers and Visiting Angels.

There's also the chance to speak to H&F Council about our services, including our fostering team, children's services, waste and recycling team, the Macbeth Centre for adult education and our employment and support service H&F Works.

H&F Mayor Cllr Sharon Holder said, “As someone who's called H&F home for nearly 60 years, CommUNITY Day captures what I love most about our borough – the incredible sense of community where people look after each other and celebrate together.

"It's our people, from all walks of life, who truly make H&F special. I hope you'll join us for this wonderful celebration of everything that makes our borough such an amazing place to live, work and grow up in."
