The countdown is now on for the third Filey Emergency Services Family Fun Day.

The event will take place on Sunday 20th August and will showcase the very best of the emergency services including North Yorkshire Police, North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue, HM Coastguard, Yorkshire Ambulance and Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

representatives from the emergency services will be at Filey Sports Field from 10am until 4pm on Sunday 20th August with demonstrations and displays of equipment and vehicles.

Inspector Andy Short of Filey and Eastfield Neighbourhood Policing Team said:

“Already this year’s event is shaping up to be really exciting with live displays, demonstrations and there is a chance for children and their families to get up close and personal with vehicles and equipment.

“Look out for more announcements in the coming months about what’s new at this year’s Filey Emergency Services Family Fun Day.

“There will be so much for people to do and most importantly it won’t break the bank as entry is free.

“This year’s event looks as if it is going to be even better than last year and we are expecting to exceed last year’s record 4,000 visitors. The interest that is already being shown by exhibitors and the public reaction has been overwhelming.

“All ages will also experience all the fun of the fair with the expansion of the event to include roundabouts, a buzz bomb and miniature train rides. Not to mention lots to eat and drink."
