Away From It All Project – looking forward
Our Away From It All holiday scheme has been running since the 1960s, although it has changed in all manner of ways over the years, it has done great deal of good things for so many families and individuals for which are very grateful.    Whilst the costs have increased, it has become apparent that the expectations and needs of families have also changed and the type of family holiday that we offer no longer meets their needs.

This coupled with the fact that a number of our amazing team of helpers, who have supported the Family Holiday,  are also no longer available to help, has meant we needed to re-asses what we are able to offer .  After discussing the position with our team leaders, and helpers, our trustees decided that we will not be running residential family holidays any longer, but we will look at other ways  for supporting families who need a break.

We are keen to support families so if branches have suggestions on ways we can support families through the AFIA fund, or if they know of local families that need support then please can contact:
