Winter HAF (Holiday Activities and Food) Programme

Children who are in receipt of free school meals can book free sessions onto this programme.  Your unique code to do this will be given to your child. As well as free places at clubs for HAF eligible children and young people, many of the HAF programmes also include paid places for children and young people who are not eligible for HAF. These are generally heavily subsidised and have been highlighted in the What’s On Guide. Please follow the link for more information:-

For those who don’t receive a print copy directly from school or nursery, you can either pick up a free copy at family venues, leisure centres and libraries across the area, or you can access the full issue on our website:
