Families of children aged four to 16 years, who are in\nreceipt of benefits related to Free School Meals (FSM), can access free opportunities during\nthe Easter, summer, and Christmas holidays. This programme is funded by the Department\nfor Education (DfE) accompanied by grant conditions set out in the Memorandum of\nUnderstanding signed by KCC.\nThis work is taking place due to funding from the Department for Education to address the\ndifficult time some families face during the school holiday periods. Increased food, childcare\ncosts and reduced incomes can mean that families struggle to provide food and activities for\nchildren.\nThe HAF programme offers a range of enriching activities and encourages young people to\nbe more active during the school holidays not become socially isolated. Families who take\npart in the programme will also be able to develop their understanding of nutrition and food\nbudgeting by having access to information and support.
