Overall, the HAF Programme 2025 successfully maximised capacity, strengthened inclusion and delivered meaningful outcomes for children and families across Harrow.

We take great pride in delivering a high-quality, inclusive programme that offers a diverse range of activities while also securing additional funding to support young people facing economic hardship but not eligible for Free School Meals (FSM).

Harrow HAF has once again demonstrated our high standards and excellent providers but it was not without challenges. The HAF funding requires constant adaptation and innovation to secure success. This report provides a breakdown of the different holidays, achievements, and challenges we encountered.

In total, we distributed over £467,000 in direct grants for the HAF Easter and Summer 2023 programme. Grants were awarded to 23 organisations offering a wide range of opportunities right across Harrow targeting a diverse range of children and young people, including Romanian, Iranian, Afghan and Tamil communities.
