Families across the local area can now enjoy a summer packed with affordable adventures thanks to the launch of the Haywards Heath Summer Guide \u2013 a brand-new, free guide bringing together family-friendly events, activities and days out taking place throughout the summer holidays.<\/p>

Created to help families make the most of everything the local community has to offer, the guide features a wide range of free and low-cost activities, including community events, outdoor adventures, family attractions, festivals and much more.<\/p>

Organised by date and complete with a handy cost guide, the booklet makes it easy for parents and carers to plan fun-filled days out that suit both their schedule and their budget.<\/p>

The guide has been pulled together by the Events and Community team at Haywards Heath Town Council. A spokesperson said: “We know that the summer holidays can be an expensive time for families, and there are so many fantastic events and activities happening locally that people simply don’t hear about. We created this guide to bring everything together in one place, making it easier for families to discover what’s happening on their doorstep and enjoy a memorable summer without breaking the bank.”<\/em><\/p>

The guide is completely free to download and has been designed for families of all ages, showcasing the wealth of opportunities available across the local community throughout the summer.<\/p>

Residents can download their free copy from the Haywards Heath Town Council website: www.haywardsheath.gov.uk\/events-and-activities<\/a>. They can also browse the Council’s online events calendar for the latest local events and activities taking place throughout the year. Event organisers wishing to promote their events are encouraged to submit them via the website.<\/p>

A limited number of printed copies of the Summer Guide are also available for those who prefer a physical booklet. These can be collected free of charge from Haywards Heath Town Hall, Haywards Heath Library, and the Dolphin Leisure Centre, while stocks last.<\/p>
