Spaces still available for free festive fun with our HAF programme!

Please help us spread the word to parent carers!

With the Christmas break rapidly approaching there are still funded spaces available on our Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) programme this Christmas and New Year. Children aged 5 to 16-years-old who receive benefits-related free school meals are invited to choose from over 60 different providers across the county who are offering a great range of free physical activities and healthy hot meals during the school holidays. Some schemes are also providing Christmas hampers for families

All clubs will be operating for a minimum of four hours and will include a hot meal, and as well as dates before Christmas, there are places available in the New Year on Thursday 2 and Friday 3 January 2025.

Bookings are now open, and details of activities can be found on our interactive map.

Remaining spaces will be offered to children eligible under our extended criteria. If a child has an EHC plan, is (or has been) in care, or is a young carer, parent carers can contact their preferred provider to ask if any extended criteria places are available.
