Holiday Activities & Food Posted or Updated on 3 Dec 2025

I’m delighted to let you know that this winter Lambeth Council will be hosting our Holiday Activities and Food Programme.

We are partnering with local holiday club providers across the borough to provide an exciting programme of meals and activities for children and young people in our local communities. Free places are available for children between the ages of 4 and 16 years, who are eligible for benefits-related school meals.

The programme will run from 22 December to 2 January and is designed to give local families on benefits-related free school meals access to free, healthy food and fun activities over the winter holidays. Each programme will provide:

• Free, healthy, and tasty food
• Fun physical activity sessions
• A wide range of other activities to suit different ages and personalities
• Opportunities to learn more about food and nutrition for children and families

You will be able to book up to 5 sessions per eligible child on our Eequ booking system from 17 November at 4pm.

I hope your family can take full advantage of the winter programme.

Yours faithfully,

Councillor Ben Kind – Cabinet Member for Children, Families and Education
