Organised by Woughton Community Council, the initiative aims to provide children and families with the opportunity to enjoy a cinema experience close to home, without the costs involved.

Entry to the screening is free, with the film being shown on a large screen within the academy’s main auditorium.

Doors open at 10am, with the film starting at 10.15am, and finishing around 11.50am.

Community councillor for Leadenhall Penny Glasgow said: “It’s wonderful to see activities like the Community Cinema giving local families something fun that they can enjoy together, right on their doorstep.

“With the cost of a family day out becoming increasingly expensive, we want to make sure there are still good-quality activities that everyone in our community can take part in.”

The project, which started in 2022, is part of Woughton Community Council’s wider programme of activities designed to make its community buildings welcoming and active spaces for residents of all ages.

Free places for the screening can be reserved through Eventbrite.
