Get ready, get set and get going during the summer holidays with a bumper programme of activities for young people in Seaford this summer.

The Seaford Summer Activities Programme co-ordinated by Seaford Town Council and Wave Leisure Trust runs from the 24th of July through to the 1st of September. With lots of different local organisations involved in running the programme, it will give under 24 year olds the chance to try something new, meet new people and visit a different venue every day, seven days a week.

Activities include golf courses at the Salts recreation ground with Seaford Head Golf Academy; boxing sessions with Seaford and Newlands Amateur Boxing Club; a variety of youth sessions at Mercread Youth Centre and Seaford Baptist Church; arts sessions at Arts@TheCrypt; Lifesaving courses from Seaford Lifeguards; the summer reading challenge at the library; regular table tennis, badminton and trampoline courses at Downs Leisure Centre and weekly swim sessions at Seaford Head Pool.

Seaford Town Council has co-sponsored the programme. Councillor Adrian Campbell, Seaford Town Council's lead on the implementation of the Seaford Physical Activity Framework Action Plan says: 'This is a great summer initiative brought about through positive partnerships with local organisations working together. This gives the town's young people fun and stimulating things to do over the holidays."

Peter Crowley, managing director of Wave Leisure Trust said: "We are delighted to be offering this joined up initiative for the first time this year for young people in Seaford with the Town Council. This programme is an amazing opportunity to try lots of new activities across the town at very low cost."

The printed programme will be distributed shortly and available from the Leisure Centre and Town Council offices. For more information about the programme also see www.waveleisure.co.uk/timetables
