Parents can get summer holiday childcare for FREE thanks to little-known help – how to get it
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) PARENTS who are struggling with money can get help with the costs of childcare for free over the summer holidays. The Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) programme is a major Government scheme aimed at helping out low-income families. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Kids can go to holiday clubs for free through the Holiday Activities and Food programme Credit: Getty It's funded by the Department for Education and provides free food, childcare, sports, music and arts clubs to low income households during the school holidays. Local authorities can decide what they will provide parents so you'll need to check exactly what is on offer where you live. Most offer help to families with children in receipt of benefits-related free school meals. But local councils are also allowed to offer help to children outside of this group. The initiative is mostly for Reception-aged children up to Year 11. Again, you should check with your local council to see if you're eligible. Most will have information on their websites or you should be able to give them a call or visit your local council office. What help can you get and how can you apply? As we mentioned, you'll need to check in with your local council to find out exactly what they're offering. But the programme generally will provide holiday clubs where kids can take part in activities and eat healthy meals. Some councils might coordinate the clubs themselves and others will work with organisations to provide the clubs locally. Martin Lewis issues urgent warning to 800,000 parents missing out on £2,000 to help with summer childcare costs The clubs will offer activities like arts, sports, drama and music, or they might even include trips. The Government says the clubs must provide healthy free meals, nutritional education and physical activities on a daily basis. In some areas you could be offered holiday club places for the equivalent of at least four hours a day. Others may run a standard 8am-3pm day for free. For example, Ealing Council says it is offering clubs and activities for a minimum of four hours per day, four days per week. It says the programme will be available for children receiving benefits-related free school meals who are either at school or living in Ealing. Meanwhile Manchester City Council says its HAF programme is mostly for children who get free school meals but you can check your eligibility here: Extra support is also on offer for children with special educational needs plus young carers and those in care. The HAF clubs are being offered over the summer holidays for four weeks. However they're also offered for a week during the Christmas and Easter breaks. The application process and what help you can get varies based on where you live. What other help can you get? The Government is also encouraging families to sign up for Tax-Free Childcare to save on their childcare costs. The scheme can give you £500 every three months for each of your children. You can use the cash to pay for approved childcare like nannies, nurseries, childminders and after school clubs. If you take advantage of it, it can save you up to £2,000 a year for each child. You could be eligible for it if you: Have a child or children aged 11 or under. They stop being eligible on September 1 after their 11 th birthday. If their child has a disability, they receive up to £4,000 a year until September 1 after their 16 th birthday birthday. If their child has a disability, they receive up to £4,000 a year until September 1 after their 16 birthday The parent and their partner (if they have one) earn, or expect to earn, at least the National Minimum Wage or Living Wage for 16 hours a week, on average Each earn no more than £100,000 per annum Do not receive Universal Credit or childcare vouchers . You can visit to check your eligibility.

Who is Mitch Lane? The budget food guru helping families beat the cost of living
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) TIKTOK is the place to be if you are a foodie, with creators everywhere teaching doom scrollers how to cook. But while many of them are former award-winning, Michelin-trained, multi-hyphenated chefs, one self-taught home cook has garnered a major following. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Mitch Lane was invited to appear at BBC Good Food Show in 2023 Credit: Instagram/@mealsbymitchofficial Who is Mitch Lane? Mitch Lane is not like your average food TikToker. The dad of three is from Wolverhampton and has been posting his food-based content on social media since 2020. He is 32 years old and was previously a tool salesman in Walsall. His first post on his TikTok account was a mouthwatering Kinder Bueno, and from there, his platform grew. His first viral video came after he reconnected the famous McDonald's Big Mac from scratch, receiving over a million views on that alone. Since then, the proud Wolves Football Club fan has amassed over 1.2million loyal followers who stayed tuned to see his latest creation. His ethos is about helping people save, without scrimping on taste, and so Mitch has been praised for his honest and empathetic addressing of the current cost-of-living crisis. What are his books? Mitch has made it his mission to show busy parents how to cook on a budget, and he brought his TikToks to written form after releasing two cookbooks. 4 Mitch Lane has produced two cookbooks all around helping families save money Credit: Instagram/@mealsbymitchofficial The self-taught chef authored his debut book, Feed Your Family For A Fiver, which was released in 2023. This book is packed full of easy, comforting, crowd-pleasing recipes that anyone can make on a budget, no matter your experience. From Tandoori Chicken Traybake to Budget Carbonara, Mitch makes life easy for his readers. The book received great acclaim, becoming a Sunday Times Bestseller. And so, he produced a follow-up in 2024, Feed Your Family For A Fiver – In Under 30 Minutes! 4 Mitch Lane released his second book in 2024 Credit: Instagram/@mealsbymitchofficial Mitch spoke to the Sun previously about his motivations for his books. He said: 'I want all you busy, budget-conscious folk to enjoy tasty, comforting meals without breaking the bank. 'And with planning, you can make all these recipes within half an hour. 'Cheap and quick, it's what we need.' What is Mitch Lane doing now? Mitch attributes his success to Lockdown, as after being stuck indoors for months on end, he decided to start creating content. While he is an social media sensation, Mitch's life has not changed drastically. 4 Mitch Lane says not much has changed in his life, maintaining his day job Credit: Instagram/@mealsbymitchofficial By day, he is still working as a hardware supplier, selling nuts and bolts, the same job he has had since I left school at 17. But he has still managed to meet his idols, as he was invited to appear at BBC Good Food Show in 2023 alongside The Hairy Bikers and Ainsley Harriott. He told The i Paper: "For my friends and family at home, I think it is both weird and exciting to see me achieving this success. "You don't tend to see people from Wolverhampton on the telly, so when one of us is on there, we really cheer each other on."
