Easter Holidays 2022

For the Easter holiday, Mansfield District Council we will be delivering Easterfest, giving children and young people the opportunity to enjoy:

• One meal during each session
• Enjoyable activities - these vary from provider to provider, but will all include creative, enriching and physical activities
• Socialising and friendly spaces to build relationships
• Guidance and signposting for parents and carers to support your family

Who is eligible?

• Children and young people aged 5-16 who are in receipt of benefits-related free school meals are also eligible for a free place on Easterfest programme. More details for eligibility are available here, under ‘Qualifying Benefits’.

• Some of our providers will be offering paid for places. We have a very small amount of places for children, who meet the following criteria:
  - Children assessed as being in need
  - Looked after children
  - Children with an EHC plan(education, health and care)
  - Children assessed as otherwise vulnerable
  - Children living in areas of high deprivation.
