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.

“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”
