Scheme launched to support families over summer holidays

The government has launched a new scheme to support families over the summer holidays.

The pilot Summer Holiday Activity and Food Programme means charities and community groups can apply for funding to help provide activities and healthy meals for children who are eligible for free school meals.

Organisations can start a new programme, which includes breakfast, dinner or lunch, or open up existing groups to more children.

Those interested can email HAFenquiries@gov.im for an application form before June 26.
