Some of our ICT systems are having maintenance over the Easter bank
holiday. This may cause intermittent issues with some of our online
forms between 9am on Friday 18 April and 6pm on Sunday 20 April.
If you experience a problem with our website, please revisit

This funding means we can offer fun activities and tasty food free of charge to children who are:
in receipt of benefit-related free school meals
attending school in the Dorset Council area
We also have discretionary codes available to children who are:
in the care of the local authority
participating in a resettlement program
referred by a school, family, or social worker
Once you sign up we'll send you your holiday pass code by text or email. Keep your code somewhere safe as you'll need it to book free places on holiday activities throughout the year.
If you don't know your child's passcode, or you wish to apply for a pass code, you can email us your child’s:
name
date of birth
school
and we will reply to you within 3 working days.
Passcodes are issued when Free School Meal applications are approved.
Many of the activities that accept the pass code will also be open to fee-paying customers too.
We've been working closely with local organisations, holiday clubs and activity providers to make sure there's a variety of activities available that appeal to children and young people of all ages and abilities.
