To celebrate the opening of its two, newly built, tennis courts, Portishead Lawn Tennis Club is running an open day, on Sunday (July 3).

The event, held on the Lake Grounds, also comes during the return of Wimbledon and invites kids of all ages to attend.

A club spokesperson has encouraged as many people as possible to get involved, regardless of experience.

They said: "Whether you are a beginner, intermediate or expert, on your own or in a family, there are memberships and coaching available for all at our friendly, inclusive club.

"Discounted membership will be available to anybody who attends the Open Day and subsequently joins."
