An exciting programme of free fun family activities and a healthy nutritious lunch is being delivered across Plymouth during the summer holidays.
Plymouth City Council is taking the Fit and Fed Programme on tour by holding six free community events within different parks and green open spaces across the city thanks to funding from the Government’s Holiday Activity and Food Fund.
