Kids can take part in a whole host of activities this week thanks to a crime busting charity.

Youngsters between the ages of eight and 16 can take part in a number of sporting events from football coaching to street athletics and judo.

The scheme, Battersea Summer Scheme’s Sport in the Park, is organised by the Battersea Crime Prevention Panel and funded by local organisations including Wandsworth Council and the Metropolitan Police.

There will also be a climbing wall, dance workshops and an assault course.
