🚢 We stepped aboard Titanic for a very different family day out in Bristol!

Titanic: A Voyage Through Time uses virtual reality to take visitors from the wreck on the Atlantic seabed back to 1912, where you can explore the ship, meet passengers and crew and even have a go at shovelling coal in the boiler room.

There were plenty of laughs along the way, but we also found it genuinely fascinating and surprisingly moving.

🏗️ Could you help build a pier in a day?

A giant cardboard version of Birnbeck Pier is coming to Weston-super-Mare this September – and families and residents are invited to help create it.

There will be free workshops at the Sovereign before the huge community build in Prince Consort Gardens on Saturday 26 September. Then, the following day, everyone can help topple it before the cardboard is recycled!
