A WHOLE host of free summer events for youngsters has been lined up by a community group to help beat boredom.

Dursley-based community group World Jungle has organised a calendar of events for the summer holidays to keep children – and parents - amused.

Every fun day runs from 1 - 4pm and will include live music, dance, games and entertainment together with a range of activities including arts and crafts, circus skills, face painting, jewellery making and Africa drumming.

World Jungle has also organised a free minibus service to collect people from the surrounding villages of North Nibley, Hillesley, Kingswood, Stone, Slimbridge and Sharpness.
