A GROUP of local children and their families took to the skies as part of Air Smiles Day, an Airbus-sponsored event hosted in association with aviation charity partner fly2help.
The day included a short flight, interactive workshop sessions by North Wales Police, and a chance to try out Airbus’ interactive Virtual Reality games.
The event, which took place at the site in Broughton on Saturday afternoon, was designed to give the children and their families a break from their worries for a day
Phil McGraa, Community Relations Manager for Airbus, said: “We’re delighted to team up with fly2help to put on a day filled with fun and laughter for lots of deserving children and families. It’s a pleasure to be involved each year and to see so many smiling faces at Broughton.”
Georgina Godfree, Programme Co-ordinator at fly2help, said: “For over a decade, we’ve been working to create life-changing experiences for young people who deserve it the most. I’m glad we got to treat so many local families to a fun-filled day out at Airbus.”
