Parks & Countryside - Sheffield's great outdoors...

 

The summer holidays are upon us once again, and what better time to be out and about keeping active in the sunshine.  There are plenty of organised events happening in and around Sheffield and everyone from all ages are welcome to get involved.  Activities range from BMX Racing, dancing, snorkelling or just going for ramble in the countryside, come along and join in with Activity Sheffield and the Ranger Service.
