Healthy Lives Holiday Programme
The Healthy Lives Programme is PACC’s Holiday offer. Healthy Lives offers a variety of activities to support physical and mental wellbeing, providing young people with SEND with opportunities to catch up with friends and be active.
The Healthy Lives Programme is about supporting the physical and mental wellbeing of young people from the Shropshire SEND community, especially those from the Learning Disability and /or Autism communities. It is about making community-based activities accessible to this group, bringing together activity providers into one co-ordinated programme that offers meaningful opportunities to learn new skills, build confidence, make friends and get active. Importantly it provides these opportunities during the school and college holidays, a time families tell us can be difficult, when young people miss their friends and routines, and Parent Carers sometimes struggle to balance the demands placed on them.
During school holidays, we offer activity sessions for 8-14 year old’s and 14-25 year old’s. Over the summer holidays, we have an increased offer, including all-age family activities and an increased offer for young people with more complex needs.
