Free Summer Holiday Clubs Available for Eligible Children

Families urged to book places at HAF holiday clubs

There is still time for families in Bradford to book free places at holiday clubs this summer through the Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) programme. The scheme offers free provision to children who are eligible for benefits-related free school meals and those with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).

Details of the HAF holiday clubs

The HAF holiday clubs provide activities and meals during the summer holidays to support children and families who may benefit most. The programme aims to offer nutritious food and opportunities for children to engage in fun, structured activities while schools are closed.

Eligibility and booking information

• Free places are available for children eligible for benefits-related free school meals.
• Children with SEND are also eligible for free places.
• Families are encouraged to book as soon as possible to secure a place.

Parents and carers can find more information and book places through local school and council channels. The programme is part of ongoing efforts to support children’s wellbeing and reduce holiday hunger during school breaks.
