Half term in Lancashire: South Ribble Borough Council to support hundreds of families with free activities for children during October half term
In direct response to the ongoing cost of living crisis, the council have funded additional activities to support families and children in the school holidays. The programme, called HAF Plus, includes free activities such as swimming, gymnastics, gym sessions and tennis at the borough’s leisure centres.
The national HAF scheme has been running in South Ribble since 2021 and is only available in the Summer, Christmas and Easter holidays, but the council wanted to ensure that families could also access the support in October and February half terms. The council have allocated over £30,000 to the October and February programme to ensure that even more families can be supported. In South Ribble, children who aren’t on Free School Meals can also attend the programme when there is availability.
