The Healthy Holidays Calderdale Winter programme has been launched. This programme aims to provide free holiday schemes for children on free school meals over the December school holidays.

DfE have provided funds for a Winter programme of Healthy Holidays Calderdale during the school Christmas holidays: Saturday 18th December – Thursday 30th December 2021.

There will be a suite of supporting documents available on the CFFC website shortly.

The Government’s Holiday Activity & Food Programme does not provide funding for half terms. Calderdale Council and Community Foundation for Calderdale have joined forces to support holiday schemes for the forthcoming October half term in areas of highest deprivation. This is because we know parents and children in the borough enjoyed and felt supported by the Summer holiday clubs. The October half term programme is on a smaller scale and is funded by Calderdale’s Never Hungry Again campaign.

Parents can visit CFFC – October Holidays to find a holiday scheme in their area between 25th-29th October.
