Here is a little summary of how TWMAD prepared and contributed towards the Holiday & Food programme (HAF) this summer with our holiday club Youthtopia.
Youthtopia is all about creating opportunities for children to feel supported, have fun and to enjoy as many positive experiences as possible. We had an amazing time.
Our Splendid Summer
More recently the school holidays for TWMAD have been spent focused on developing and growing Youthtopia which is our exciting holiday club for children. TWMAD works closely with our partners at the DoubleTree Hilton who provide a stunning venue and facility.
Youthtopia is our contribution to the Holiday & Food Programme (HAF) which is a national initiative coordinated locally by The Hubb Foundation. The aim is to support families during school holidays by offering children exciting enrichment activities and experiences along with access to a healthy meal.
Rebrand & Refine
We really wanted to elevate the experience for the children this summer, so we decided to freshen up and rebrand Youthtopia, we made changes to the leadership team and adjusted the food offerings. We also introduced a rewards schemes, new snack packs & prize along with a fantastic variety of engaging and exciting activities.
Making a Difference
“ We had lots of new faces who came along we loved catching up with and seeing how some of our familiar faces are maturing and developing their confidence”
“The children loved bowling yesterday; it made their day; they haven’t stopped going on about how much fun it was”
“I love to be creative; I make some things at home but I’ve never tried balloon modelling, it’s so much fun!”
This year is flying by and I can’t believe that the school summer holidays are already upon us. This means that our student support enters a quieter period and provides our to team with some time to rest, reflect and recharge.
I will be doing the same but also using the time to make some adjustments and improvements to ensure that come September we are ready to go again and serve our partners with a fantastic service once more.
