Lego Club, Roller Disco, Tea & Newspapers, Walking and More...

Happy Easter! Spring is slowly settling in and the DaffodilI’s are in bloom.

This week feels like a nice one to pause and enjoy the little things in life.

Brighter mornings, longer evenings, and the excuse to plan a few simple adventures.

April always brings that fresh-start feeling, and it’s a lovely time to get out and about to explore what’s happening in Antrim and Newtownabbey.

I’ve found you plenty of events to look forward to this week including:

Hope you enjoy!
