Story

Holidays for heroes

No one deserves a holiday more than the hard-working key workers who have risked their lives to keep the UK running during the coronavirus crisis. From nurses to care workers to supermarket staff and refuse collectors, they have healed us, held our hands and helped our country stay together through these difficult times.

Week after week the Great British Public have shown their appreciation of NHS and frontline heroes. Now's the time to do something practical. We're working with the Family Holiday Association, the charity that gives families a break, to raise funds to provide holidays and days out to low income key workers.

Your donation - however small - makes a difference in providing a much-needed break to low income key workers and their families. The more we raise, the more we can reward. Join us in showing our heartfelt thanks now.

Our story

Give Them A Break was set up by a small group of volunteers to unite the UK travel industry and the public to give something back to key workers. All funds go directly to UK registered charity the Family Holiday Association.
