Store manager of JTF Preston, Matt Pointer said: “Our Preston team is really looking forward to welcoming all the families from the local community to our summer fun day. Our last family day back in May proved hugely popular and we know how much everyone looks forward to the summer holidays.

“What can be better than free food and drinks in the sun? We wanted to give our customers something to make the most of – especially in this amazing weather we have had this year!

“With the pressures of keeping the kids entertained during the long summer break, we want to make it a little easier for the parents of Preston.

“Our activities are sure to keep the children busy whilst you browse our huge selection, offering you the UK’s biggest savings on products for your garden!

“We look forward to welcoming everyone to the event.”
