What does HAF offer?
Children, who are eligible for benefits-related free school meals, will be able to:
- access enriching activities that they may not otherwise be able to attend
- enjoy learning new skills
- meet friends and socialise, reducing social isolation during school holidays
- have a healthy and nutritious meal – preferably hot
- take part in physical and creative activities
- build greater knowledge of health and nutrition
- access culturally specific/sympathetic provision.
Why is Derby Different?
Unlike other HAF regions, Derby City Council wanted to get to the heart of the communities it serves. To do this, they have partnered with us here at Community Action (CA). We want our HAF to reach everyone - every community, every ward, every eligible child and who better to do this than our local groups who are based in the heart
of their communities!
