The Broughton & Milton Keynes Parish Council is funding a free MultiSports Camp for children during the February half-term in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire. The camp will run from Monday 16 February to Friday 20 February 2026 and is open to children aged 4–11.
Sessions will take place daily from 09:00 to 15:00 at the Broughton Pavilion on Tanfield Lane. During the week, children will be able to take part in a variety of sports taster sessions such as football, tag rugby, dodgeball and athletics (details as published by the parish council).
The parish council says it is providing the camp to offer parents a free childcare option while schools are closed for the holiday. The scheme is funded through the parish precept (a component of local council tax) and the council’s reserves; because places are limited, families must register in advance via the council website and places may be allocated through a local ballot or booking system.
This initiative follows the 2022 transfer of several leisure buildings — including Broughton Pavilion — from Milton Keynes City Council to parish control, a move reported in local media. The parish’s published financial records show it is using grants, precept income and reserves to support community programmes.
