Holiday Clubs
Is your child aged 4 to 16?
Do they get benefits-related free school meals?
If so, they may be eligible for free activities and food during the school holidays through the Fun Vibes, Active Lives scheme.
Throughout the school holidays, there is a range of free activities such as:
- multi-sports
- creative activities
- days out
- drama workshops
- digital learning
There’s so much choice to keep children and young people occupied and active during the school holidays – and they’ll get a free healthy meal too!
How do I sign up?
- To book a HAF place you will need a HAF e-voucher.
- If your child is eligible for a free place you will receive the voucher code, issued by your school, via email or text from hello@holidays.
- The e-voucher will have a link to the booking system where you can choose a club and book places for your child using your HAF code.
- Vouchers will be sent out from Friday 14th March when bookings will open.
