“We also had help from local organisations Berzerk Productions, Tina Kersley School of Dance, Kazoku Karate-Do, Donna Arts and Crafts and Whitley Researchers.

“Each child received a free lunch, not just children with holiday activities and food (HAF) codes.”

Sessions took place between 10am-2pm on each day.
