St Annes: Splash is Back - Water Play Park Opens for the 2026 Season

Families across Fylde are in for a treat this Bank Holiday weekend as the much-loved Splash park in Promenade Gardens, St Annes, opens its gates for the 2026 season today.

The popular water play area, which first made a splash back in 2019, returns for another summer of fun with its fantastic range of features including spray loops, water sprays, bucket drops, water domes and a paddling section – perfect for keeping the little ones cool and entertained throughout the warmer months.

Designed for children aged 3-12 years, Splash will be open from 10am to 4pm, seven days a week, through to September, offering five hourly sessions daily. Sessions can be booked online up to one week in advance or on the day – with same-day sessions available for walk-in customers paying by card at the venue at the start of each session – for just £2 per child for an hour of play. Weekly sessions for children with disabilities and special educational needs are available throughout the season.

A spokesperson for Fylde Council said: “Splash is one of those facilities that genuinely brings joy to families summer after summer, and we’re delighted to be opening the doors again for 2026. Whether you’re a local family making it a holiday weekend treat or visitors discovering the Fylde Coast for the first time, we hope to see you there — fingers crossed for a fantastic summer!”

Defence Update:  Your move, better supported - Fairer moving costs for UK PASH users


Your move, better supported:

Fairer moving costs for UK PASH users

Moving home is never easy, but the Armed Forces are making it a little simpler and fairer.

If you live in Single Living Accommodation (SLA) – in a Mess, Barrack Block or equivalent – and you need to move your things when posted to another unit, there are two ways you can get help:
  • UK Private Arrangements Self Help Scheme (UK PASH) – you arrange your own move and claim back some of the costs
  • Self Pack Service (SPS) – your unit helps move your belongings through stores
What's changing?

UK PASH remains a popular choice – used by over 1,500 Service personnel last year – and from 1 May 2026, it’s getting even better.

Right now, you can claim back up to £298.56 for things like van hire, a trailer, packing boxes, or a removal firm. That cap isn't changing.

But here's the new bit: you can now also claim Motor Mileage Allowance (MMA) on top of the £298.56. MMA is paid at 25p per mile for one return trip – including any required detours, like picking up a hired van.

In short, you get:
  • up to £298.56 for your moving costs
  • 25p for every mile you drive
Why does this matter?

Moving further away costs more money. But until now, everyone got the same cap – no matter how far they had to travel. That wasn't fair, especially as personnel don't always get to choose their posting – moving to where Defence needs them.

This change means longer moves get more support. It's a practical improvement that better reflects the costs involved in Service life.

Part of Your Offer

The Armed Forces Offer is about making sure that the people who serve our country are treated fairly and looked after well, with real support when life gets disrupted – like when you need to move home to serve at a new location.
Further information

Full details and information on all the rules around removal support are available in JSP 752, Chapter 12, Section 4.
