Two big events in town - 'Spooky Saturday' and the launch of Sandbach's annual poppy appeal.

Motorbikers from the Royal British Legion's Bikers branch will ride into Sandbach to launch the town's annual Poppy Appeal.

Some of the riders are ex-service personnel but many more just want to support the Royal British Legion through the Riders Branch. They will gather on at Sandbach War Memorial at 3 pm. A short service will be held at the War Memorial and anyone is invited to attend the event.

Another event take place in the centre of Sandbach at the same time is Sandbach Partnership's 'Spooky Saturday' - a free event for all the family. 

This spooktacular event will take place between 3pm and 6pm on the 'creepy' cobbles and in St Mary's Church Hall and will feature a range of 'horrid' activities and entertainment to get you in the 'spirit' of the season. 

This year they are also offering a sensory hour for activities in St Mary's Church Hall from 2pm. Visit the event page for details on how to register for free tickets. There will be a range of free activities including apple bobbing, slime station, face painter and arts and crafts. 

A new feature this year is the 'People vs Pasta' eating challenge in collaboration with Casa Mia, Sandbach. Places are limited and the deadline to register to take part is tomorrow ( Friday 17 October at 4.30pm). Find all the details here.
