Leicester Children's Holidays provides holidays and short breaks to disadvantaged children.
The charity ran free annual holidays to Mablethorpe for almost 120 years.
It said it planned to launch as part of its anniversary a new project called Broadening Horizons to support children to participate in all-year-round activities. "It is such an important programme, as so many children are missing out on regular weekly activities such as dance, martial arts, cricket or football due to the cost."We know how important this type of enrichment is for a child's development and we are continuously striving to make a difference to bridge the gap between those that have and those that haven't.
