Social holidays – everyone has the right to a holiday!

Hyvinvointilomat ry organises financially supported full board vacations for families with children, for the unemployed and for pensioners.

These five-day supported holidays include accommodation, full board meals and access to guided holiday activities. Holiday packages for families with children and single-parent families also include group-based childcare. Find out more about prices here.
