East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) summer holidays grant scheme has launched for 2025.
Applications are welcomed from organisations, charities, schools, town and parish councils, faith groups and businesses to provide four-hour sessions and a healthy meal for children and young people in receipt of benefits related free school meals. Organisations can apply for up to £20,000 to deliver fun activities in the summer holidays.
Sessions could include sport, play, drama, cooking, crafts, music, healthy lifestyles, art, outdoor adventure or animal experiences. HAF grants can part-fund programmes which are open for all children, or fully-fund those solely for eligible families. Funding can be spent on management and staff delivery, equipment, venue, food, marketing, capital costs, volunteer expenses and excursions.
The deadline for applications is 12pm on 30th April 2025.
