RAIL SAFETY EVENT STEAMS INTO LIVINGSTON
Friday July 17, 2009
Up to 2,000 young people will descend on Inveralmond Community High School on 22 July, from 12pm, as Livingston plays host to ‘No Messin’ Live!, a massive free event run by Network Rail.
Now in it’s fourth year, ‘No Messin Live!’ makes its first stop in West Lothian this summer, with the goal of getting the railway safety message across to kids using a positive, fun, inclusive style.
The event is the first of eight similar events to take place in the UK this summer. The second will take place at Hamilton Palace grounds on Friday 24 July
The major event, hosted in partnership with West Lothian Council and the Community Justice Authority, will give young people the chance to take part in activities they’ve never tried before as well the sports and games they love. The events will include a Game Zone, DJ mixing, boxing, wrestling, dance, street soccer, art wall, Creative Creatures motion animation, skate park, TV and music.
In addition, a live stage will give local bands a chance to profile their talent and football free-styling expert, Colin Nell will be on hand to demonstrate his skills and share his techniques.
