Hello fellow residents!

As we kick off the Easter Half Term, I’d like to take a moment to highlight some fantastic free activities available for our young people this holiday.

I’m always striving to bring more opportunities for our young people, whether it's through Pop-Up in the Parks, Crewe Alex in the Community, Street Sports, or Wishing Well this Easter – all of which I’ve helped bring to Leighton Brook Park.

From our wonderful local park to the wider Spring Festival of Fun across Crewe, there’s something for everyone this holiday – and the best part? They’re all completely free!

So get out in the sun and have some fun this Easter!
