WHITBY Leisure Centre is getting ready to host the first-ever Whitby Community Sports Fair on Saturday 13th February.

The event is free to attend and will take place from 10am until noon.
Matt Hewison, Scarborough Borough Council's sports development officer said: "All the local clubs and organisations have done their bit by agreeing to attend the event in their own time.
"The response from the clubs has been fantastic with 28 organisations getting involved, ranging from voluntary sports clubs, funding bodies and strategic groups.
