Harvest Trust is a national UK charity which provides simple seaside holidays for disadvantaged children. These holidays are specially for groups of 8 to 11 year olds who need a week away, but never get the chance. The holidays are based at the Trust’s own holiday centre near Cardigan Bay in West Wales, and are arranged in partnership with primary schools, community groups and child care organisations.

Since 1986, Harvest Trust has developed a unique and effective seaside holiday experience for children living in severely disadvantaged circumstances.

Children from dismal housing estates hit by unemployment, poverty and crime. Bereaved children. Young carers. Abused and neglected children.

For these children a holiday isn’t a luxury.

It’s a vital break away from a life most of us would find intolerable. It gives them a week of much needed freedom and fun - a glimpse of a better world and perhaps a brighter future.
