Description

Expressions of interest are sought to undertake the design and delivery of research to evaluate the implementation and impact of the 2021 Holiday Activities and Food Programme (HAF), which will be rolled out in all local authority areas over the Easter, summer and Christmas holidays. The evaluation will predominantly consider the summer holiday scheme, however there may also be scope to consider the Christmas holiday scheme as well.

The Department will use this research to understand if this approach to delivering HAF nationally meets programme aims as well as informing decisions on future delivery.

Project design and set up will commence in Spring 2021. We expect the project and contract to last until Autumn 2021 with the possibility of an extension until early 2022.
