Overdale Beach Party, in photos

Posted on by

On Saturday 17 June 2023, we made waves by hosting the Overdale Beach Party at the Carpenter Centre, Overdale.

There were balloon twisters, bouncy castles, food, drink, ice creams, crafts, and beautiful weather (in the end)!

We had a great turnout, and we hope everybody enjoyed themselves as much as we did!

We’d like to say a big “thank-you” to the residents who helped us make refreshments and assisted with the arts and crafts, and to our colleagues from the Safer, Stronger Communities team and Community Action Team from Telford & Wrekin Council, who helped ensure everyone could just chill out and relax!

Our next big event is Summer Fest 2023, on Saturday 8 July. While you’re waiting for that, though, take a look back at some of the photos from our Beach Party!
