Two circus acts will be performing at the Purfleet-on-Thames Big Lunch – Mimbre and Sam Goodburn.
Mimbre will be showcasing their new show Weight(less) where the resilience of three women shines through amidst life’s challenges featuring a blend of acrobatics, movement and humour.
Variety, comedy and stunt performer Sam Goodburn has a reputation for making riding a unicycle appear both effortless and frighteningly difficult, so don’t miss his spectacular tricks!
Plus there‘s a live DJ set, Riverside Charitable Trust will be delivering free physical activity workshops for children and families, there will be free games workshops from Happy Go Lucky Family’s and additional stalls provided by The Purfleet Community Hub.
