Funding available for school trips

We are delighted to be the first school operator to be approved by the YHA to offer funding for school trips under the Breaks4Kids, YHA Initiative.

Now, through the YHA we can genuinely make a difference to the education of some of England’s most deprived kids! If you as a teacher know of pupils who may have missed out on a school trip purely because of the costs, then please read on..

Break4kids is a charitable fund, founded and supported by the YHA to help disadvantaged kids to join their classmates on trips and activities. Our partnership with the YHA means we can hopefully reach more schools in order to make them aware of the funding that is available to them.

As you know school trips allow children to learn beyond the classroom, enabling children to expand their horizons, build their confidence and self esteem, as well as developing important communication skills and team building. We believe no child should miss out on that opportunity.

With Break4kids, children from low income households can apply for grants which will contribute up to 50% of the cost of their YHA accommodation and food. When organising your next school trip let us help you make it inclusive for the whole class, so no child is left behind!
