Your Invitation to Herefordshire's Summer of Fun
Free family activities across the county, 19 to 30 August
A brand new event will be touring Herefordshire's market towns this summer, offering children and young people the chance to have a go at a host of fun activities. From the adventurous to the arty, it's all absolutely free of charge!
Try your hand at something new over the county's two-week Summer of Fun, which runs from the 19th to the 30th of August and will tour the towns of Bromyard, Kington, Ledbury, Leominster and Ross-on-Wye.
Activities will take place from 10am to 4pm each day, see full timetable below to plan your days out.
What will you try?
Channel your inner Robin Hood with archery, then test your balance on the surf simulator. Reach new heights with the pop-up climbing wall, before plunging into twists, turns and tunnels of the overground caving. If you’re looking for something creative, pop along to one of the craft workshops, learn circus skills or give balloon modelling a go.
Whether you're a thrill-seeker or a budding craftsperson, there's something for everyone, with ten activities available in five locations - all free to attend.
