Event Details
After returning with a bang in 2023, we are excited to announce our 2024 date for your diary! Join us for our free, family fun day on Saturday 17th August 2024 here at LOROS Hospice.
Our beautiful Hospice grounds will host outdoor games, bouncy castles and mini golf whilst also giving children the chance to check out a police car and come face-to-face with adorable fluffy alpacas. With a range of food and craft stalls, games and activities, there’s something for everybody to enjoy.
Rapid Relief Team UK will be supporting us on the day by offering a tasty BBQ and there will be a range of sweet treats available for afterwards.
We’ll have balloon sculptors bringing cartoon characters to life with their balloon artistry. From Disney Princesses, to Harry Potter, there will be something for everyone.
Why not transform your child into their favourite super hero or animal by our amazing face painters or bedazzle yourself with a glitter temporary tattoo?
The Big Day Out is the perfect chance to discover what exactly Hospice care is and how we’re here for you. On the day we will be offering Hospice tours which will give you the opportunity to see first-hand how your support makes a world of difference to the services and facilities available to patients and their families.
If you were interested in working for LOROS in the future or would like to find out more about volunteering, on the day you will be able to find out more about all of our amazing opportunities coming up in the future.
There's no need to book, just join us on the day!
Getting here
The Big Day out will take place at our Hospice Grounds on Groby Road but please note there is no parking available onsite at the Hospice.
Where to Park: Gilroes Car Park LE3 9QG
For those requiring car parking, we have arranged the use of the car park next to Gilrose cemetery, LE3 9QG, just a short 5-minute walk from the Hospice for a donation to LOROS. This will be well sign posted and staff will be there on the day to help you find your way to the Hospice. A shuttle bus will also be available for those who are less mobile. Buses also run every ten minutes along Groby Road.
