A Day of Laughter & Joy with The Flying Seagulls – 19th April 2025

by | Apr 4, 2025 | News

We’re thrilled to announce a very special event coming this spring! On Saturday 19th April 2025, OLLY will be welcoming the incredible team from The Flying Seagulls Project to Egan Road Church for a day full of play, creativity, and joy for the children we support.

We’ll be hosting up to 50 OLLY Members on the day — giving them a much-deserved opportunity to laugh, play, and enjoy a truly magical experience in a safe, welcoming space.

Who are The Flying Seagulls?
The Flying Seagulls are an inspiring group of entertainers, artists, and play practitioners who bring laughter and light to children and vulnerable people living in difficult circumstances — both across the UK and around the world.

Since 2008, they’ve brought smiles to over half a million children in 24 countries, using music, dance, circus shows, and creative workshops to create spaces where children can feel safe, confident, and free to play. Their mission is simple but powerful: to give children their basic human right to joy.

🎪 What to Expect at the Event
Children who attend can look forward to a vibrant, high-energy session filled with:

  • 🎶 Music and movement
  • 🎨 Creative arts and playful workshops
  • 🎭 Circus performances and silliness galore
  • 💛 Safe, inclusive spaces that nurture confidence and happiness

Everything The Flying Seagulls do is rooted in the belief that play and laughter are vital to a child’s wellbeing and development. Their sessions break down barriers, encourage participation, and help children feel like they belong — values we at OLLY deeply share.

✨ Let’s make magic together – one laugh at a time.
