Family Space HAF

What we do

At Cheltenham YMCA Family Space we provide enriching and enjoyable activities during the school holidays, we are committed to creating a safe inclusive environment where children, young people and their parents/careers can come together to engage in family-focused activities.  We understand the pressures of feeding a family and providing activities can have and aim to support families in often an isolating time, where the change of rhythm to family life can affect the whole family’s well-being.

Through our programmes and HAF provision, we offer carefully designed family activities, aiming to strengthen family bonds, creating and forging community connections.
