RHOSDDU locals had their moment in the sun as the residents came out in numbers for their community fun day.

Ian Lucas MP teamed up with local organisations to help stage the fun day at Rhosddu Park on Garden Road yesterday.

The day was very popular, with children and adults alike queueing up for the various stalls and attractions including a long line for the bouncy castle.

There was also a treasure hunt, dog display and show, face painting, a storyteller, plus various games and toys.

Mr Lucas said: "I'd like to say a big thank you to everyone who helped make the day such a huge success.

"It was wonderful to see the community come together in Rhosddu Park and see so many smiling faces - young and old.

"We couldn't have asked for better weather either - the sun shone all afternoon.

"A number of local organisations and businesses joined forces to make the event possible and they were rewarded with an amazing turnout."

Other organisations involved include St James’ Church, the Salvation Army, Wrexham Community Church, Rhosddu Methodist Chapel, North Wales Police, Rhosddu Community Council and AVOW.

Free refreshments were provided by the nearby Spa store, church members and Asda.
