Published on
Time is running out to secure a spot on Walsall Council’s Holiday Activity and Food (HAF) programme ahead of the Easter holidays.
*Eligible families can book a space for their child or children on the popular programme, which will run for two weeks this Easter holidays.
Free, local and fun activities will run from Monday 14 April 2025, until Friday 25 April 2025.
The last day to book is Friday 11 April 2025.
Parents and carers can book slots on the council’s website:

“ With over 6,000 individual daily HAF places, we’re busy working with 60 providers to deliver a fortnight of fun for children and young people aged 5-16.
As many people will know, one of the best things about the HAF is whilst children are attending their activities, they receive a free healthy and nutritious meal too, which helps take the pressure off parents and carers during the school holidays. So get ready for the Easter holidays and book your HAF activities! “
Walsall Right for Children (WR4C) facilitates the HAF programme and can be contacted by email at WR4C@walsall.gov.uk. Follow the team on Twitter for updates.
Further information about the programme is available on the council’s website: HAF website. This includes information on how to register your child/children and how to become a HAF provider or volunteer.
