Summer youth scheme extended

Last summer more than 100 young people took part in sessions over the holiday period in Mansfield and this summer there will also be sessions in Sutton and Hucknall.

The sessions, organised by Nottinghamshire County Council, run for the next 12 weeks between 6-8pm on Thursdays at Titchfield Park, in Hucknall, and at The Oval, in Sutton.

Sessions in Mansfield will take place on Fridays between 6-8pm, at both Oak Tree Leisure Centre, in Jubilee Way South, and in Barringer Road.

Coun Liz Plant said: “It will give more young people in these communities the chance to take part in these exciting activities.”
