FREE children's activities are being offered across Hertsmere this February half term.

The borough council's Play Rangers scheme provides sport and creative art sessions for children aged five and above during the school break.

Councillor Brenda Batten (Conservative, Bushey Heath), portfolio holder for leisure, culture and young people, said: "It’s great that children have the opportunity to attend a range of events during half term.

“Any school holiday can be a difficult time for parents financially so the fact that the Play Ranger activities are free is good news all round"
