Orkney Summer of Play Booklet

INFORMATION BOOKLET#getintosummer

Orkney Islands Council, Council Offices, School Place, Kirkwall, Orkney, KW15 1NY01856 873535 | orkney.gov.uk

After a challenging year for many children and young people and with the school holidays fast approaching, the Council’s Sport and Leisure Team are delighted to announce Orkney’s participation in a national campaign to further develop and enhance the range of activities on offer locally this summer.

By working with a range of partners including the Pickaquoy Centre, Scottish Disability Sport and local sports clubs it is hoped that there will be something for everyone to participate in, with the majority of activities in this booklet being free or at a discounted rate.

The national Get into Summer campaign funded by the Scottish Government and Sportscotland which is supported by Parent Club, aims to create opportunities for children and young people impacted by COVID-19 to socialise, play and reconnect this summer.

“Orkney’s children and young people have experienced significant disruption to all aspects of their lives as a result of the pandemic and the funding Orkney has received has enabled us to offer a really exciting and inclusive programme which aims to provide opportunities for children and young people to socialise, take part in activities and generally just have fun over the summer.

There’s nothing better for everyone’s wellbeing than getting out and about, meeting old friends and making new ones, and getting active. So why not make full use of the longer days and better weather.”

Garry Burton, OIC Leisure and Culture Service Manager
