Moor Time – The Short Breaks Charity (Holiday Club)
Moor Time holiday club runs five days a week during the Bradford Local Authority Christmas, Easter and Summer holidays. The club is currently funded by Bradford Council's Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) scheme. The five days meet the needs of a range of different peer groups: Mondays- for mobile young people aged 8-16 with complex communication and sensory needs and severe learning disabilities (this is the most over-subscribed session, so we run it twice a week. Young people who need this session type are offered either Monday or Wednesday, not both). Tuesdays - for young people aged 5 (in year 1 of primary) -16 with medical needs who would benefit from a nurse on site. Wednesdays - for mobile young people aged 8-16 with complex communication and sensory needs and severe learning disabilities. Thursdays - for secondary-age young people with all additional needs. Fridays - for primary-age year 1 and above with all additional needs. During a full day session, there is a morning and afternoon snack time that Moor Time will provide. Lunch is at 12.30pm and we usually provide a free hot lunch. Alternatively families can provide a packed lunch. When you first make a booking they will ask you about any dietary or feeding requirements. Typical activities include Sensory and messy play; Arts and crafts; Baking and cooking; Physical games and sports; Forest school learning; Music; Animal therapy; Yoga; and Trips out. As there are a number of rooms in the building no activity will be compulsory, children can choose to do what they prefer. Trips are to green spaces around Ilkley, and into the community, helping the children to understand how the town works and giving them the chance to practice life skills like shopping, handling money, travelling on public transport and ticket buying.
