The Holiday Activity and Food (HAF) programme provides free, fun activities during the Easter, summer and winter holidays funded by the Department for Education.
Children of families supported by benefits-related free school meals can access up to four days of free activities during Easter and winter and sixteen days during the summer. The activities will help to:
- increase self-esteem
- improve wellbeing
- provide information and advice on healthy eating and nutrition
Most importantly, we want your children to have some fun.
Some activity providers also have spaces available for any child, but there may be a cost to parents.
About HAF events
We have a variety of events, they all include an activity and a nutritious meal.
Clubs and activities are run by established community groups, creative arts, sports, leisure, and youth organisations.
We have a range of providers who can offer activities for young people with additional needs. You can discuss your child's needs with the provider.
