The charity helps women and girls to be self- sufficient, to have a voice in their community and enables them to earn an income to support their families.<\/p>\n<p>Children enjoyed face-painting, colouring and word sheets with an African theme. They potted plants, made plant markers and created a mural comparing plants which grow in the UK with those in Kenya. Both children and adults could try carrying water containers, learning how heavy this work is. All these activities, apart from face-painting, were free.<\/p>\n<p>There was also a Kenya themed quiz for adults to try and a tombola for all the family.<\/p>\n<p>Displays depicting life in Kenya, samples of work done by local Soroptimist clubs and a continuously running informative presentation all about Kenya and the Meru project gave everyone something to think about and hopefully to enjoy.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Marie Blacktop<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 (Blackburn)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>22 April 2017 &#8211; Barton Grange Garden Centre [new_royalslider id=&#8221;17&#8243;] Regional President Angie Christopher and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":616,"featured_media":3298,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[23,14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3305","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-events-2017","category-ourblog"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Family Fun Day | News | Blog | Events | SI North West England and the Isle of Man<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SI North West England and the Isle of Man : Blog &amp; News : Family Fun Day : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of SI North West England and the Isle of Man .
