Over the summer, there are lots of events taking place across Barnsley. I have listed some of these below, most of which are free or affordable.

• Barnsley Council are once again running their Healthy Holidays Clubs across the Borough to help families keep children active and healthy over the break. Children in receipt of Free School Meals can access the programme for free. To find out more and for a full list of Healthy Holidays Clubs with activities on offer, visit www.barnsley.gov.uk. 
• Elsecar Heritage Centre are hosting their Elsecar by the Sea trail, where children can search for hidden seaside objects at the facility. This is free, and is open during Elsecar Heritage Centre’s opening hours. To find out more about this and other events taking place, visit www.elsecar-heritage.com/whats-on.   
• At Experience Barnsley, children can take part in a scavenger hunt, encouraging children to locate some of the team’s favourite treasures. This event is free, and more information can be found at www.experience-barnsley.com/whats-on.   
• For those who are interested in our natural environment, Worsbrough Mill are hosting a number of events outdoors, including the multisensory trail, and enchanted envelopes and pebble poems. Find out more at www.worsbrough-mill.com/whats-on.  
• Barnsley Libraries are holding a number of events across the Borough. You can find out more information here.

I will continue to update this page when I become aware of other events taking place across Barnsley over the summer holidays, but if there are any events you think should be on this list, feel free to contact me at stephanie.peacock.mp@parliament.uk.
