Foundation 92’s Free Winter Holiday Activity Camps are back!

Foundation 92, will be hosting free holiday activity camps over the winter holidays, aimed at children across Greater Manchester, who receive free school meals.

The activities funded by The Department of Education’s Holiday Activity Fund range from arts and crafts to sports and music and will run at various locations across Greater Manchester from Monday 23rd of December until Friday 3rd of January.

Part of a national campaign, this scheme is aimed to keep young people in safe, fun and interactive environments during the holiday period. Young people will receive a free healthy meal each day supporting their growth and development.  

Across the winter, Foundation 92 with thanks and support of Trafford Council, Manchester City Council, and Manchester Active, aim to provide over 750 free places during the course of the two weeks.

Head of Foundation 92, Tom Hutton said: “We are delighted once again to be able to provide the children of Greater Manchester access to this great programme. It’s a fantastic opportunity to meet new friends, spend time doing activities and have a great time in a constructive manner. 

“Families don’t always have access to disposable income to allow their children to attend holiday camps as they are usually expensive. All of our activities in this programme are completely free and I’d like to thank all our incredible partners for coming together and making this happen for young people across the region this winter.” 

The Winter Holiday Activity Camps are open for 8–16-year-olds and will run from Monday 23rd of December until Friday the 3rd of January.
