Join In 1In response to a recent report that highlighted that 40 per cent of children in the most deprived areas were overweight or obese in the last year, compared to 27 per cent living in more affluent areas, Edinburgh Leisure is launching a range of free and low-cost summer activities to encourage children from all backgrounds to get active.

The activities on offer are being delivered by qualified coaches from Edinburgh Leisure and a range of partners, including Edina Hibs, Craigmillar Community Sport Hub and Street Games. All ages and abilities are encouraged to come along and join in the fun.
