Families on an FHA
break usually spend a
week in one of our
caravans at a UK
seaside park.
We currently own 11
caravans.

will help 1,600
families.
A total of 7,000

4,000 children.

But over 2,000,000 UK
families with young
children can’t afford a
break away from home.
The scale of the problem
is massive.

On 5 June 2007, the FHA
launched the Social
Tourism Consortium.
Social tourism is the
inclusion of people
living on a low income
in holiday and leisure
activities.

“We believe that too many people are excluded
from the benefits provided by even a simple break
from home. Together we will work to promote
social tourism for the improved well-being and
happiness of society.”
