Families who have signed up previously do not need to re-register for December 2024 holiday vouchers- you will already have been included. Families that have previously signed up will need to contact Gloucestershire County Council with any changes to your circumstances (e.g. if the number of children eligible increases or decreases). 

 

Using vouchers – vouchers need to be used will only be awarded once the parent has registered for the scheme and cannot be backdated. Vouchers are valid for 6 months, although they should be used in the holiday period in which they are awarded. If vouchers are not claimed and have expired, they cannot be re-issued.
