Healthy Holidays

The Healthy Holidays fund helps community groups run activities and provide healthy food for children during school holidays. You can get up to £22,000 to support children who are eligible for free school meals. The money comes from a partnership between Leeds Community Foundation, Leeds City Council, and the Department for Education. You must be a community organisation working with children who qualify for free school meals. The deadline to apply is 17 April 2026. You can use the funding for engaging activities and healthy meals during school breaks. This helps tackle holiday hunger and keeps children active when school is closed.

This grant is for community organisations that work with children eligible for free school meals. You need to provide activities and healthy food during school holidays. It is not for individual families or schools directly.
