Sergeant for Nantwich at Crewe Local Policing Unit, Claire Lloyd said: "It is important that we work together to prevent our young people from getting bored and slipping into crime or anti-social behaviour throughout the summer holidays.

"By organising the range of events over the summer period in Nantwich, we aim to reduce anti-social behaviour in a fun manner.
