HAF Free Holiday Provision
The CCT works in partnership with Stockport SMBC in delivering the Government’s Holiday Activity and Food programme (HAF) during the Easter, Summer, and Christmas school half term. The aim of this programme is to deliver free activities for children on free school meals.
This provision is backed by a nationwide investment of up to £220 million, the programme enables young people to enjoy fun activities with friends and learn and develop new skills.
The programme includes a variety of fun activities alongside a nutritious meal each day ang gives young people the opportunity to get out and about, get active and meet new friends. At the end of each course, every young person receives their very own Stockport County family recipe booklet which has been created by the club’s head chef.
Matthew Bailey, CCT Partnerships Manager commented, “We were delighted to be able to offer this provision to eligible families.
“After what has been an incredibly difficult 18 months for many of us, children especially have been impacted by the pandemic and this programme allows them to enjoy their half term holidays by taking part in activities with friends safely.”
