Adel Family Fun Day – A Success

We are pleased to announce that the Adel Family Fun Day event was a great success.  Despite the rain it was a pleasure to see so many children’s smiling faces.

This was our first big event and we wish to thank West North West homes Leeds for the funding which gave us an opportunity to get to know each other better from all different cultural backgrounds to bring back that community spirit.

Adel Crag Community Association would like to thank the following sponsors for their generous support:

David Wilson Homes, Leeds Rhinos, MEARS Group, First Bus, Hazels Café, Co-operative Food, Adel, Adel Players and Greg Mulholland MP.

We wish to also thank ASDA Holt Park, Adel for their contribution and Adel Wood Stores for organising provisions at a reduced rate.

The Local Neighbourhood Policing Team, and the Leeds Underdogs for their support.

All Committee members, and local residents without whose help this event would not have been possible.

Our thanks also go to those who supported us by attending the event.

Thank you for an enjoyable day and hope we can do it again in the future.
