Botanic Gardens goes Jurassic this Saturday with dinosaur-themed activities for all the family – and it’s all for a good cause.
The event is hosted by Belfast City Council and is in aid of the Children’s Heartbeat Trust, one of Lord Mayor, Councillor Deirdre Hargey’s chosen charities.
Taking place from 1pm-4pm, ‘Botanic Goes Jurassic’ with free entry, will feature dino robotics, dino walkabout acts, craft workshops, archery, bouncy castle fun, face painting and much more.
“This will be a great afternoon out for all ages where you can walk with and hunt for dinosaurs and also help support and raise funds for one of my charities this year – the Children’s Heartbeat Trust,” said the Lord Mayor.
Cathy Dalton, from the Children’s Heartbeat Trust, said they are delighted to be involved with the Lord Mayor’s event.
“This event coincides with our annual Heart Week to raise awareness of Congenital Heart Disease (CHD). Over 200 babies each year are born with a heart condition in Northern Ireland and this event is a wonderful opportunity to highlight the impact CHD has on heart families and the work of the charity to provide emotional and practical support to those affected,” she added.
