They enjoy getting involved with lots of things at home and in the community and playing together. Come and be inspired by Nikhil and Jay, to explore fun weekend activities to help the planet, meeting new friends and connecting with your community.

And from 1.30pm, drop into the SAIL Salon in the Cinema Café – an informal session for young audiences to relax, engage and create, with the SAILFest authors and illustrators on hand to offer prompts or chat to you about translating your imagination to the page.
