In particular they’ll host a Funday at Lionwood Infant School
on Saturday 19th June between 11am and 4.30pm to include
face paints, wide games, dance performances, BBQ, DJ workshops and
family activities.
Danny Doran-Smith, ENYP’s Project Director says “ENYP's heart is
to work alongside the local Churches across the East of Norwich, to
reach out with love and compassionate service.
This is just another example of how we can draw on each

community".
