Can anyone recommend a simple, free desktop publishing programme?

To cut a long story short I need to produce a competitors' handbook that can be emailed out for a local sports event in a couple of weeks but I have never done it before. The person who normally does it isn't available so I am stuck with it and not really sure where to start.
I'm not totally computer illiterate but not great either so it needs to be fairly easy to use and I don't really want to spend money as in all likelihood I won't be doing this kind of thing much, if ever, again. In previous years it's been done by a club member who s a graphic designer so it's looked very swish. I'm not aiming to replicate that but hoping for something that looks a bit more professional than just bunging all the info in a Word document!
All suggestions gratefully received.

Canva's pretty intuitive, and has hundreds of free templates to choose from

Thanks @natura I'll give that a try this weekend.
