Time for an adventure

SSAFA Children's Holidays and Short Breaks

SSAFA coordinates holidays and events that focus on offering new experiences and activities for children and young people from Service families.

What's great about our Short Breaks?

These adventures give children a break away from home, where they can gain independence, make friends and have fun. The breaks also give family left at home a rest, to spend time together and recharge their batteries knowing that their child or sibling is having a wonderful time.
