The Around and About Kids Club has just opened its second breakfast club at the Bridge Centre in Chippenham, thanks to National Lottery funding and help from Barclays Bank staff.

The club, which already runs several after school clubs and a breakfast club at Frogwell School, was awarded £31,012 from the National Lottery in July.

But the new breakfast club, whose home is a room at the Bridge Centre, could not be opened until it had been refurbished.

Now with partition walls knocked down, a kitchen installed, new furniture and a bright colour scheme, it has finally opened it doors to youngsters.

Last week staff from Barclays Bank's business section, based in Chippenham, helped add the finishing touches by redecorating.

Around and About manager Maggie Capper said: "It looks absolutely brilliant. It is bright, airy and welcoming."

The idea behind the breakfast club is to provide a place for working parents to drop off their children on the way to the office, where they will be given breakfast and walked to school.
