Across Prince Philip Park this month we focus on ‘Connecting with your Community’.

June is a busy month in Whitehill and Bordon; there is something for everyone to enjoy, whatever your interests. Connecting with your community through local events is a rewarding experience, providing an opportunity to build strong relationships and create a sense of belonging.

So, this month discover how you can connect with like-minded people or find out what exciting events are on in the town.

Fathers’ Day Weekend

Tap @ The Shed’s Annual Beer Festival takes place on the 16th, 17th and 18th of June, following the success of last year’s event. Attendees can experience a wide variety of real ales, craft beers, and cider while enjoying live music from local artists. The event not only offers the chance to try new drinks and meet new people, but also serves as a fundraiser for the Bordon Foodbank, which provides critical support to those in need in our town.

Feast on something new

Toddler Tuesdays are back at The Shed and this month it’s a messy play special! On Tuesday 13^th June Daisy’s Craft Room brings a selection of interactive activities for your toddlers to experiment with. It’s a great opportunity to let your little one experience new things, socialise and for grownups and kids alike to build a new circle of friends.

Due to the nature of the activity, we recommend dressing your little ones in clothes you don’t mind getting messy!

These local events play a vital role in fostering a sense of togetherness and belonging in the community, bringing people from different walks of life together, creating connections and memories.
