Holiday, Activities and Food (HAF) winter programme

We are delighted to let you know that our winter 2025 Holiday Activities & Food Programme is now live and there are plenty of spaces available for children in Devon.

We’re now taking bookings for the Holiday Activities and Food Programme for this winter – news

The scheme is for children of school age, in receipt of benefit-related free school meals. In addition, we also provide ‘extended criteria’ places for children with an EHCP, looked after, or previously looked after children, and young carers.

For the winter delivery we also have some opportunities for family pantomime tickets available to book via the booking system and, as always, a wide range of fantastic face to face provision for eligible children.

Some schemes this year also include hampers, and all provide either a hot or cold nutritious meal, alongside a variety of physical activities.

Please could you spread the news to your families of eligible children that you work with, so that as many can access schemes as possible.

If you are posting about any fantastic HAF provisions on social media, either that you are delivering yourselves or have links with, please also remember to use the official hashtags #DevonHAF25 and #HAF2025 which will maximise reach for family awareness.
