Kids Stuff

Picture
There will be lots of exciting, fun activities for the kids to get involved in this year, from Rugby coaching to Story Telling and a Kinder Garden with hula hoops, balls, space hoppers, giant jenga and badminton etc to help them burn off that candy floss sugar rush under parental supervision! Adult space hoppers also for those big kids!
The Yog Bar will have a stall. There will also be face painting and a bungee run and pizza delivery by Domino Pizza - just opened in Hoylake!

Fundraising & Sponsorship

Summerstrum is a non profit ,self funding event. The cost of staging the Summerstrum is met by sponsorship,fundraising and the support of various local businesses .
Without this support the 'Strum' would not be able to take place as a free to all spectacular event.
In February Wirral Ukulele Orchestra were nominated 'Community Champions 'by Persimmon Homes for their charitable work and awarded the sum of £1000.

If you would like to be a sponsor at next years event please contact Pat or Emma at:
