What About the Kids?

This year, there's lots to do for both children and young people. Ray and Bev Langton bring us their wonderful Cuckoo Crafts to entertain young hands and minds with fun, varied craft and music activities. Ray and Bev provide children's activities at folk festivals like Towersey and Oxford, and we're delighted to welcome them to Loughborough. PLEASE NOTE: children under 8 must be accompanied by an adult.
