Trafford summer holiday clubs for youngsters on free school meals

Young people across Trafford are being encouraged to join the borough's free holiday clubs programme during the school summer holidays. The Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) programme is to provide healthy food and fun activities to children and young people with free places available for those on free school meals.

HAF, which is funded by the Government, was also delivered by Trafford Council across the Easter holidays and helped provide more than 2,000 young people with free meals and fun activities. Both primary and secondary school-aged children will be able to access the sessions throughout the holidays, including provisions available for children with additional needs, at no cost to parents.

Trafford Council says it will work with more than 20 providers to help put on the sessions. They will include a variety of fun activities, including sports, music, arts and other exciting opportunities to learn and develop skills like meeting new friends, alongside a nutritious meal each day.
