EVER thought about running away to join the circus?

Well there may be no circus to run away with but St John's United Reformed Church is holding a clown workshop.

The workshops are open to adults and children, aged seven and above, who must be accompanied by an adult.

The workshops will be led by Roly Bain, who is a professional clown and an Anglican priest who will also be conducting a lively worship after the classes.

The workshops take place on Saturday with the first from 1.45pm until 4pm and the second 2.55pm until 5.15pm.

Tickets cost £1 and refreshments will be available during the afternoon. Big shoes and red noses are optional.
