Summer holiday activities in Pimlico

The summer holidays begin today for many students and teachers around the country, and for our locals who have the next five/six weeks off who may be stumped for ideas of what they can do, here are some suggestions for activities going on in Pimlico. 

The Westminster Boating Base kicks-off its 'Summer of Sport' activities on Monday 25 July when they will begin offering free kayaking and sailing taster sessions. These will run until Thursday 28 July so get in there quick to book your place. It's a great opportunity to take up a new sport - an Olympic sport at that too. Sessions run from 12.00-1.30pm and 2-3.30pm each day. Ages 10yrs+ are able to participate. If you want to reserve your place or find out more then email enquiries@westminsterboatingbase.co.uk or phone 020 7821 7389.
