Whatโ€™s New?

Our Family Fun Day 2025 was a big success!

Thank you to everyone who attended our event, it was lovely to see you all!

Thank you to Luke Pollard MP for kindly opening our Family Fun Day and unveiling the new Keyham Story Shed, established by the amazing 1st Keyham Squirrel Scouts. Itโ€™s so important that we can provide a safe space for children and their families to embrace the joy of reading and discover a range of books.

A big thank you also to Oh My Cod fish and chips, Nickyโ€™s Ices, Little Wren Bakes, Plymouth Argyle, Ginsters, Plymouth Hockey Club, Inspired Theatre Collective, author Samantha Webb, and everyone who attended the event with their beautiful craft stalls, tombola, puppet shows and childrenโ€™s activities.

โ€œHere at Keyham Green Places, we are committed to organising community events that are fun, affordable and family-centred. It was lovely to see people of all ages coming together, enjoying themselves and all KGP has to offerโ€

Jennifer - Chair of Trustees

โ€œI have to say, this is the best fun day that I've been to and we have done a lot. It is far beyond anything else we've been to.โ€

Visitor - Parent

โ€œThere is actually stuff for children to do, not for us to just spend money on. My children have enjoyed it tremendously.โ€

Visitor - Parent

โ€œI have loved every bit of it. There was so many fun free things for families to do from scavenger hunts, to puppet shows, storytelling, willow weaving, chalk art, lawn games and not to mention the play park.โ€

KGP Volunteer

โ€œThere are craft stalls, good food, good music and a lovely place to sit and chat with friends over a cuppa overlooking the gardens.โ€

Visitor

โ€œI booked 2 tables on your last fete for myself & my sister. We enjoyed our day so much that  I was wondering if I could book 2 tables again for your Christmas fete.โ€

โ€œThe best part of the day was talking about plants with Chris and his grandson.  I can't wait to come back.โ€

Visitor - Child

โ€œMy grandson cried the whole way home as he didn't want the event to end.  We will definitely be back!โ€

Visitor - Grandparent
