External Support

Hundreds of different activities are on offer from more than 70 organisations through the school holidays. From farm experiences and rock climbing to Snowsports and festive crafts, the huge range of activities on offer will give young Cumbrians the opportunity to try something new and have fun this winter.

Funded by the Government’s Holiday Activity and Food Programme, all the activities are free for families whose children receive benefits-related free school meals. The programme will also fund additional free places for young people in particular circumstances, with eligibility for funding depending on the organisation running the activity. Some activities also have paid-for places available to all children and young people.
