There was a good turnout for a community event in Inverness over the weekend.
South Kessock Residents Association organised the fundraising day to support community activities on Saturday between 1pm and 4pm.
There were plenty of activities on offer for those who attended the event which was held between Carnarc Crescent and Craigton Avenue.
It featured live music, a car boot sale, food, face painting, a tombola and a bouncy castle among other activities.
Sonia Cooper, a member of South Kessock Residents Association (SKRA) and one of the organisers, said it had been a good day.
She added: “There were about 250 people there – a lot more than we expected.
“We had a bouncy castle, a burger stall, face painting and tombola, raffles – it was a really good day.
“The weather was the highlight and the looks on the kids’ faces getting out and being able to run on the grass.”
The residents association covers the South Kessock area of Inverness including Kessock Road, Carnarc Crescent, Craigton Avenue, Bridgeveiw Drive, Kessock Avenue, Rosehaugh Road, Old School Place, Thornbush Road, Harbour Court, Quayside Court, Tannery Court and Coronation Road.
On the group’s Facebook page chairwoman Merrin Avis said they tried to keep residents updated regarding upcoming events and fundraisers and, as a group, they mainly kept the community at heart.
