A range of outdoor activities have been organised to make sure youngsters don't get bored this summer.

Everyone from six months to 18 years is welcome to take part in The Biz holiday scheme's fun-packed park projects.

An emergency services day is being held at Priory Park in Victoria Avenue, Southend, on August 19, allowing children to meet rescue teams and see their vehicles.

The Biz is run by Parkwood Leisure, in partnership with Southend Council.
