Silverdale fun day

If you ever wanted to dress up in a Mickey Mouse costume but been too embarrassed to do so, then today is the day to dig out your fancy dress.

The Isle of Man Children’s Centre family fun day takes place at Silverdale from 12 o’clock and organisers are encouraging you to join them in character costume.

Disney is the theme with all funds raised going to the Centre’s charitable projects.

There’ll be activities for the family, including jousting, a treasure hunt in the glen and all the usual Silverdale attractions.

Event organiser Michelle O’Malley says there'll be plenty going on.
