NEW Milton residents will be able to take part in a new festival next month.
The BeInvolved festival is due to be held on September 16-17, where locals will be encouraged to take part in new activities.
Whether you would like to get fitter, learn a new skill, contribute to the community or find an outlet for your creativity, the weekend is an opportunity to find an activity or venue suitable for you.
The event will take place on Recreation Ground and in the Memorial Centre.
There will also be street food, refreshments and a bar, with more events planned at local venues in the weeks preceding and following the festival.
Several local venues, sports and social clubs are involved, with a variety of demonstrations taking place including dancing, martial arts, musical performances and exercise classes.
For younger attendees, there will be storytime and face painting, and Good Citizen training for any doggy visitors.
