Holiday Activities and Food programme

The Holiday Activities and Food programme (HAF) provides healthy food and enriching activities to children and young people, with free places available for those who receive free school meals. It’s available during the summer, Easter and Christmas school holidays, with the next HAF programme running this Christmas.

School holidays can be a particularly difficult time for some families. This free holiday club programme helps children to enjoy active and healthy school holidays, where they can experience new activities, meet friends and eat healthy meals. We encourage you to make your pupil’s parents and carers aware of the scheme and the local clubs in your area.

For information on how your pupils and their families can get involved, please encourage them to contact their local council.
