Jubilee fun at Shrewsbury Market Hall - Play area closed

JUBILEE CELEBRATIONS AT MARKET HALL

 

 

This Jubilee weekend  Artist Annaliese Powell, 23, from the Shawbury Village Players, will be at Shrewsbury market on Saturday offering face-painting and temporary tattoos from 10-12pm and nail painting from 1-3pm.

 

As well as face-painting, free drop-in workshop sessions to make the ‘crown jewels’ are being held by Compost Kids throughout the day and there is a chance to win an extra special prize by taking part in a crown treasure hunt which runs from Saturday, until June 9th.

 

Kate Gittins, site facilities manager at the market said: “We’ve already had such an exciting week with the arrival of the Olympic Torch in Shrewsbury, and our links to one of the torch bearers who works in the market. We’ll be continuing the celebrations over the Jubilee weekend with a number of events and activities so come along and join in the fun!”

The Quarry play area in Shrewsbury will be closed until further notice following a suspected drain collapse.


Councillor Steve Charmley,  said: “Our staff at the Quarry Swimming and Fitness Centre have changed the timing and reduced the volume of water to the drains to try and alleviate the problem. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and we are working closely with the town council and Severn Trent to reopen the play area as soon as possible.”
