Sam Davies, the Community Forum Chair and author of the booklet, writes: “Many of the activities and opportunities which are usually available to local families won’t be happening this year. That’s why we’ve produced this booklet, using a different theme for each of the six weeks of the summer holidays, to help stimulate you and maybe introduce you to some parts of our area with which you weren’t previously familiar. The walks are for all ages!
“The inspiration for the six themes – and support for the booklet – comes from the writing of local author Rob Macfarlane. We’d love to see what you make and do in response to these suggestions – send us a photo or a video clip, write us a message, or paint us a picture and we will post them here on the website.”
