Fun Days

Fun Days takes disadvantaged children across the UK on a fun day out and helps them remember what it is like to just be children

Last year we took…

 

37,600 Children
out on a Fun Day

There is no such thing as an average Fun Day, they can be as simple as a trip to the cinema, a theme park or the circus, or a wellbeing workshop where the children learn a new skill. These Fun Days out all help children build self-confidence, improve socialisation, bond with their family and just have fun.

Fun Days not only gives them a happy memory they can look back on but also something to look forward to.

Since the start of the project, hundreds of thousands of children have gone on a Fun Day. While KidsOut supports children from a range of backgrounds, including those living with critical health issues, in economic hardship or with a disability, some of our most vulnerable beneficiaries are children that have fled domestic abuse for the safety of a refuge or a safehouse.

“We had a great time at the cinema and had treats of pop and popcorn, it was the best day ever”

“This opportunity opened doors to Victims of Domestic abuse who never had an experience of a cinema. I see the changes in their faces and a burst of energy”
