Winter HAPpy camps are back!

Hertfordshire County Council has joined forces with the Herts Sports Partnership and the Hertfordshire Community Foundation, to organise the Holiday Activity and Food (HAF) programme for the school holidays every Easter, Summer and Christmas until 2024.

In Hertfordshire the programme is called HAPpy - Holiday Activity Programme - and aims to counter the triple inequalities facing Hertfordshire’s most disadvantaged young people – holiday hunger, physical inactivity and social isolation. This holiday provision is for school aged children from Reception to year 11 (inclusive) who receive benefits-related free school meals.

Booking codes for Winter HAPpy camps will be shared with schools from Monday 2nd November, with camp registration going live on Monday 21st November. HSP’s Holiday Gap Team are working with camp providers to create approximately 9,000 places this winter.
