We run and support a variety of events and activities for local communities every summer.
All events are open to all ages and abilities and free to attend, unless otherwise stated. Children must always be supervised by an adult.
Some events will have limited spaces and must be reserved in advance. We will publish booking details for these events on 6 July.
All the events will also be listed in our Hello Summer leaflet. We’ll make it available to download here when it’s ready.
