What are the outcomes for the Holiday Activities and Food Programme Grants Scheme?

We are seeking for children (and their families) to be:

• Happy and Healthy:

We want our children and young people to be resilient, happy and healthy, making choices that support wellbeing.

• Feel Safe and Belong:

We want our children and young people to feel safe in their community and at home, are safeguarded from harm and have a sense of belonging.

• Achieve and Contribute:

We want our children and young people to achieve their potential including a good education and employment, where they are supported to make positive contributions to their communities.

We believe the HAF Programme will contribute to the achievement of outcomes by:

• Supporting children and young people to be healthy over the school holidays.
• Supporting children and young people to be more active during the school holidays.
• Supporting children and young people to take part in engaging and enriching activities which support the development of resilience, character and wellbeing along with their wider educational attainment.
• Supporting children and young people to be safe.
• Seeking to prevent social isolation amongst children and young people.
• Supporting children and young people to have greater knowledge of health and nutrition.
• Support children and young people to be more engaged with school and other local services.
