Children and young people from the following groups, who are not eligible for benefit-related free school meals, may be considered and must be referred by an agency professional such as a teacher or a social worker. In the case of our activities, we can also do the referral.
- Children assessed by the council as being in need, at risk or vulnerable
- Young carers
- Looked-after children or previously looked-after children
- Children with an education, health and care (EHC) plan
If you feel your child would be eligible for a free place at our activities under these guidelines then please book using the Free HAF ticket, and we will get in touch with you and make the necessary referrals if appropriate. If there are no spaces available please email liz@krunch.org.uk.
All places are offered on a first come first serve basis.
