In this our third special edition you will find more information on summer activities taking place across the Southern Trust Area for children, young people and their families. This starts on Page 4. To access the two previous editions, just follow the links on Page 73. We have consistently been asked what provision is available in the summer time and know how valuable this is to families and also practitioners to be able to share.

Our next edition is on Thursday 17th July, so please bear this in mind when sharing your flyers and information – See Page 75 for details of all July to December newsletter dates & deadlines.

We hope you enjoy your summer and get a chance to have a well-earned break!
