Get creative with caps and bold with bonnets and take part in a Kent Hat Festival.

Every year hundreds of families turn out in Faversham wearing spectacular headwear for the fun and unusual event.

It takes place this year on Saturday, March 31.

To help hat-wearers create their best headgear and join the festival, a fun hat making workshop for both children and adults is being held in the town on Friday and all are welcome.

It runs 11am until 3pm at The Guildhall in Market Place and costs just £3 for children and £5 for adults.
