A healthy hot meal is provided each day for lunch, with healthy drinks and snacks throughout each day.

What makes Kore Sandwell Holiday Camps unique?
Our camps provide young people the opportunity to participate in sports and fun activities at Tipton Sports Academy, with the aim to help improve their health and well-being as well as educating them about a healthy balanced diet. It’s been a great experience for the team to play a part in this programme. We have all enjoyed seeing how the activities have made a difference to the local children. We hope that all the children integrate their learning and fun into their everyday lives.

What benefits can you expect from this?
Children can access healthy fruit, snacks and drinks throughout the day in addition to a healthy lunch. They can also actively engage in arts and crafts activities, games and food workshops for all the family. Children will have the chance for new experiences, and will be able to develop team skills, resilience and confidence through taking part in our enriching activities throughout the week.

What makes this activity inclusive?
In order to cater for young people with SEND, all our staff are trained on disability awareness and our coaches have completed CPD courses regarding inclusive activity. Prior to the sessions beginning the HAF manager will make contact with the parents of children that are registered with SEND or additional needs, to ensure we are clear on the child’s needs and we can make plans for any amendments that may be required. We use an additional coach to support those with additional needs throughout the sessions. We have adapted equipment available that will make activities fully inclusive. If required we will develop a risk assessment/system of work to support young people. We would support families of children with EHCP by signposting them to local partners we already work with such as SPDC
Please call the provider for additional information regarding the activities.
