UK parents and carers: what are your plans for the half term?

In February, school aged children across the country will break for the half term holidays.

As the cost of living crisis continues to squeeze families’ budgets, we want to know how you plan to keep your kids occupied. Maybe it is a visit to your local library, or a sports camp to fit with your work schedule.

Have you planned any activities? How are you budgeting for the school break? Do you have any worries about the half-term holidays? Have you organised childcare?

Please note, school term and holiday dates vary across the UK, but half-term in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales takes place in February.
