Along with the pro athletes, to celebrate their fifth Birthday, The Snow Centre will offer free 15 minute taster lessons available for complete beginners, skier or snowboarder, adults and juniors.

Pro Instructor Warren Smith will also be on snow offering tips for improvers and more advanced skiers on the main slope.

Under seven-year olds can try out the Burton Riglets (snowboarding for children) alongside the outside Superslide.

Next season's kit will be available to test out from Head and Salomon and gear from Columbia and Dare2b will be available to win.

The Travel Clinic will be open in The Lodge Bar & Kitchen giving advice on when and where to go skiing next year from UK tour operators Crystal Ski, Ski Weekends and Zenith Holidays.

"Jenny is an inspirational figure and we are so pleased to have her and the other athletes at our event," said Ian Brown, Managing Director of The Snow Centre,

"Interest in snow sports soared during the Winter Olympics in Sochi and with her bronze medal success she really has inspired many new people to take to our slopes. We're thrilled to be able to introduce people to the snow and the slope and to help nurture the next generation of aspiring athletes at The Snow Centre. We're very much looking forward to our 'Snowday' event and hope to see new and familiar faces on the day and on the slope over the Bank Holiday weekend."
