Holiday school meals vouchers
Recent changes to the national rules on spending mean that central government funding can no longer be used to provide holiday Free School Meal vouchers. As a result, Wandsworth Council is having to discontinue the holiday voucher scheme from the Summer 2026 school holidays onwards.
This change applies only to holiday vouchers and does not affect Free School Meal support during term time, which will continue as normal.
We recognise the importance of this support and remain committed to helping families access alternative provision. Wandsworth Council will continue to provide a range of support for families, including:
Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) Programme, which offers:
- Free, fun activities for eligible children and young people
- Healthy meals during sessions
- Opportunities to stay active, socialise and learn new skills
Magic Breakfast holiday packs, available for families whose children attend schools participating in the Magic Breakfast scheme.
