FOOTBALL, fire engines and mauy thai workouts were all on show at the Pakistani Community Centre.
The Glodwick Family Fun Day, organised by Greater Manchester Police and Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service, gave people a chance to see what it is like to be a real firefighter in the fire engine simulator.
While that was for over 15s only, there was a smaller fire engine for the younger children to play in.
And teams of family and friends got to test their football skills against each other on the pop up football pitch...there was even a chance to play the local police team.
For those looking for some self defence training, there were workout sessions with Team Taz Muay Thai.
