The group plays a vital role in the local community for children and parents by providing free outdoor activity sessions which allow the children to learn about the environment and how they can do their bit to look after it.

Poppy Kyles, Chair of Growing Families, said: “We are proud to be able to offer a youth club for local children in Loanhead.
