HAF clubs are making a huge difference to thousands of children and their families this summer. Not only do they provide nutritious meals but are also filled with fun and educational activities that help ensure no child falls behind and that all have positive holiday memories.
Our HAF clubs are giving children a safe, active and fun place to be over the summer – while helping families with costs over the holidays. Our Plan for Change is helping every child to achieve and thrive.
