🎃 Darton Zombie Dash Cancelled 🧟‍♂️

We’re really sorry to share that we have made the difficult decision to cancel the Darton Zombie Dash on Saturday 31 October. This is due to not having enough volunteers to both safely and effectively deliver the best experience for everyone involved.

Thank you to everyone who booked a place and offered to volunteer. Ticket fees will be refunded.

Particular thanks to Darton Darby and Joan, NOVA Theatre Group and Les Cadeaux for their support towards the event.

We wish everyone a safe, fun and spook-tacular Halloween, and we hope to see you at one of our future community events 😊
