B&Q will open the doors to its newly revamped home improvement store in Milton Keynes on Saturday (January 21) and will celebrate with a free family fun day.
Soap fans will be in for a treat too - with a special guest appearance from ex-Emmerdale star, Kelvin Fletcher between 12pm and 2pm.
Kelvin will be testing out his DIY skills against the B&Q Milton Keynes’ store team.
“The family fun day sounds like it’s going to be a great way to celebrate B&Q Milton Keynes’ recent revamp and I’m looking forward to being part of it. My DIY skills might be a bit rusty – but I’m certainly going to give the challenge my best shot and I hope the public will help to cheer me on," Kelvin said.
There will be lots of activities to keep all the family entertained throughout the day, including a balloon modeller, face painter, stilt walkers, games and giveaways galore.
There will also be a designated area where children can have a go at planting vegetables and plants.
Martyn Buzzard, unit manager at B&Q Milton Keynes, said: “The fun day promises to be a brilliant event for all the family and we‘re looking forward to seeing everyone getting stuck into the activities and surprises we’ve got planned, including Kelvin who will battle it out against our staff in a very special DIY challenge!
"We can’t wait to welcome local residents into our newly revamped store so they can see all our new products and services, and our knowledgeable team will be on hand to offer expert advice for their own home improvement projects.”!”
The B&Q family fun day will run between 11am and 4pm, with Kelvin Fletcher instore from 12-2pm, at B&Q Milton Keynes, Patriot Dr, Bradwell Common, Milton Keynes MK13 8PU.
