We will be running Play in the Park, with an exciting twist for 2020.
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we are unable to deliver our usual jam-packed summer programme but are pleased to announce a full schedule of Play in the Park sessions.
This scheme is all about playing and having fun outdoors. The difference for 2020 is you will be given a fun-filled activity pack, which includes craft activities and games, to take home.
