Free Summer Holiday Activities Popular Once Again
Shildon AFC has this week been hosting free summer holiday activities in partnership with Livin, Bishop Auckland & Shildon Area Action Partnership and Shildon Alive.
The programme of activities has once again proved very popular, with all the places on this years scheme fully booked.
