During the Easter and summer holidays Nottinghamshire County Council delivered the Department for Education Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) Programme. 

During this time, we’ve delivered healthy food and enriching activities to over 12,000 children and young people, across thousands of sessions with District and Borough partners, schools, community partners, our Youth Service, Integrated Childrens Disability Service, Childrens Centre Service and Notts Outdoors.

Feedback from parents and young people:

• “I love it loads and loads here. I get to play with new kids and ones I already know.”
• “I love summer school. I love how many different activities there are for us to do. I loved the healthy food tasting and when we tried the vegetables that we picked ourselves at the allotment.”
• “Thanks again for everything you are doing for the community and thank you to the genuinely caring people that volunteer/ work at the centres, they are amazing”.

Winter Holidays 2021

For the Winter holiday, we will be delivering further provision, giving your children and young people the opportunity to enjoy: 

• One meal during each session
• Enjoyable activities - these vary from provider to provider, but will all include creative, enriching and physical activities
• Socialising and friendly spaces to build relationships
• Guidance and signposting for parents and carers to support your family
