Free holiday activities with hot meals now available for children during the Christmas 2022 holidays

School holidays can be particularly difficult for some families because of increased costs, such as food, especially now when costs of living are so high and rising.

So, we have arranged a programme of funded holiday-time activities, with hot meals, to run for up to four days over the Christmas 2022 school holiday.

The government-funded programme for the Christmas 2022 holiday has just been published, and parents or carers can book places with the providers now.

There is a wide range of activities to choose from, from cooking and craft, sports and coaching, outdoor and forest play, music and dance, and more.

All clubs will be operating for a minimum of four hours and will include a hot meal. The activities are fully inclusive and accessible, but parents and carers are encouraged to discuss their child’s needs with their chosen provider.

All children are eligible to register, although priority places will be given to children aged five to 16 years old (or four-year-olds, if in reception), who are eligible for and receiving benefit-related free school meals and their families.
