- Each Child’s name, address and date of birth

When can I book a place?
Bookings for winter 2023 will open in mid-November, more information and the booking page can be found at www.derby.gov.uk/derbyHAF. Places for the Derby HAF programme are limited, and bookings will only be accepted with a Derby HAF code.
