The emergency services in Mayo are coming together for a unique free family fun open day in the grounds of Ballyheane Community Centre, Castlebar, on Saturday, July 14, from 12 to 5 p.m.

The showcase features the ambulance, fire service, coastguard (including a helicopter rescue demonstration), the civil defence, An Garda Síochána and mountain rescue team.

The event is in aid of Kyle4Kids, a local charity raising funds for Crumlin Hospital and the children's ward at Mayo General Hospital. Entry is free.

Donations are welcome through a bucket collection for the charity. See www.kyle4kids.com.
