SLAITHWAITE Brass Band will open and close Slaithwaite Spa Park’s ‘Picnic in the Park’ on Saturday May 2.

The picnic is being held in the park from 1pm to 6pm.

A section of the Slaithwaite Philharmonic Orchestra, the Ecco Singing Group and the North Stars Steel Band are also performing.

The event is for people to enjoy the park and learn something about Slaithwaite Spa’s role within the Colne Valley over the last 100 years.

Entrance to the park is off Manchester Road in Linthwaite.

The picnic is free to attend but bring your own refreshments and games.
