00:00Hello and welcome to Manchester World. My name's Theo Hewson-Betz and today I'm out on the streets of Manchester
00:04talking to people about the cost of childcare during the holidays and that's because as the summer holidays approaches
00:10families and grandparents who might be trying desperately to stretch their money during the school year
00:15are now faced with the task of keeping kids happy and entertained over the course of a long summer.
00:20I work for a charity so we work with disadvantaged children and a lot of what we do is doing things like that
00:25like going on days out and actually just exposing them to things like the cinema
00:29because like I spoke to a child the other day and like he was 11
00:32and he's only ever been to the cinema once before in his life
00:35because it's just so expensive so a lot of what we do is like
00:38I think there are options like most museums in this country are free
00:42most art galleries like are free and like lots of places like that do run like activities during the summer and stuff.
00:48Your son and his girlfriend they've got a little one and everything that they do like swimming lessons etc
00:55going to the zoo it is a lot of money for them isn't it?
00:59you
