What is BACE Holidays?
BACE Holidays is organised and run by Barnet Council and Young Barnet Foundation and fully funded by the Department for Education.
BACE holidays supports children and young people aged 5 – 16 who receive benefit-related Free School Meals* in the borough of Barnet.
School holidays can be pressure points for some families due to increased costs and reduced incomes.

Activities may include football, cricket, arts and crafts, performing arts and lots more.
