How do families access holiday activities and food programmes and other support? Learnings from the Borough of Southwark holiday activities and food club’s evaluation

The evaluation highlighted the low-level of family awareness of all available HAF activities across the borough. Furthermore, navigating the system was reported as challenging. Southwark Council reviewed and revised its online provision to create a centralised repository accessible to families that aimed to improve awareness and ease the club booking process. Further work is required to improve signposting to support services and provision for parents/carers.

Abstract

The evaluation highlighted the low-level of family awareness of all available HAF activities across the borough. Furthermore, navigating the system was reported as challenging. Southwark Council reviewed and revised its online provision to create a centralised repository accessible to families that aimed to improve awareness and ease the club booking process. Further work is required to improve signposting to support services and provision for parents/carers.
