Whether you are planning to celebrate Easter, Passover or observing Ramadan this month, there’s something for everyone this spring in Battersea, Nine Elms and Vauxhall.
For the young people in your life, Nine Elms-based youth organisation FAST are hosting a range of affordable activities and trips during the school holidays, check out the FAST Instagram page for more information.
Easter Unlocked is back with a free programme of activities, plus a free nutritious meal.

Eligible families will be contacted directly but parents who think their child may be eligible can find out more about Easter Unlocked and book online.
Want your kids to learn new skills whilst having fun during the holidays? There are plenty of activities with Vauxhall City Farm’s Easter Club starting from 4 April and free for any children who qualify for free school meals.
Does your child love football instead? Ginga Soccer School are running an Easter Holiday Camp at Powerleague Nine Elms. Find out how to book Ginga Soccer School.
Local libraries regularly have lots of great activities going on if the weather isn’t looking great, so why not check out what’s on at Battersea Park Library or South Tate Lambeth Library?
