Professionals, schools and other partners are a valuable part of the Solihull HAF Programme.
This page provides information about:
- making a referral
- working with us on provision
- supporting children to access clubs
Supporting eligible children to access holiday clubs
We ask that you encourage all known children and families who receive benefits-related Free School Meals to book places with HAF providers. Children who attend a Solihull school will have received an email to show proof of entitlement and the child’s Solihull HAF code, which they must show to providers when making a booking.
If you are a school you may have provision running in the school or very close by that you can promote to eligible families. You can see what's on offer at our activities page.
