Tamworth Borough Council has funded a series of half-term holiday activities for children this February.
They take place from Monday 17th to Friday 21st February, offering a programme of roller skating, trampolining, football and cycling for children aged 12 and under.
Cllr Lewis Smith said: “These activities are always a huge success and are very popular, so I would encourage people to sign up as soon as possible so that they don’t miss out.
“We work in partnership with sports clubs and companies from across the borough to put together our school holiday programmes, which means we can offer a wide range of events for children for free during half term.
“We hope that the range on offer gives children from across Tamworth the opportunity to try something they may not have tried before.”
