Local free community events

Take a look at the events page at your community centre. Many host free events including arts and crafts, baking or sport events over half-term.

Libraries could also be an option – memberships are free and they may host family-friendly reading afternoons that not only keep little ones entertained, but encourage learning too. 

Explore your local museum for free

Not all museums require a paid ticket, and those that do often host half-term offers where children go free.

Many museums also throw school holiday events to keep kids entertained for longer, too. 

Join the national trust for under £7 

Kids under 5 get to enjoy the national trust for free but they also offer a £10 junior membership for children with an interest in wildlife, history and culture.

Alternatively, a family ticket can be purchased for £83.40 a year or £6.95 a month.
