Best Summer Ever

A £1.7million City programme of children's activities, which provided a lunch and things to do for young people, took place across Kenton and Newcastle from the end of July, throughout August and ended in early September.  Over 450 local young people took part.

The funded programme known as the 'Best Summer Ever' was spearheaded by the Council in partnership with the charity Street Games.  The following projects took place across our neighbourhood:
· Inspire Youth at Kenton Park Sports Centre, activities aimed at 3-16year olds
· Kenton Park Sports Centre
· Hattrick in Kenton Park
· NUFC - 4 days Football Camp, Kenton School

The events were geared to all children and young people under 16.  The programme had been put together to suit everyone's tastes and was fully inclusive  Those taking part got a free lunch.
There will be a Christmas Holiday programme based at Kenton Park Sports Centre.
