With the cost of living soaring, Bolton Council Families Information Service has put together a list of where families can eat out for less this October half-term.

Supermarkets and restaurants across the borough, and further afield, have put on special deals, including where children can eat free.

This means that families can still enjoy socialising together, while still watching the pennies.
