Hi, I have applied to the family fund for the first time for butlins vouchers.
Sent application off in May, had a home visit early July. Am waiting for decision letter.
In the meantime, I've been checking the butlins website daily for price and availability to give me an idea of what we will need to put towards it if we get awarded.
I am horrified by the prices for a Monday-Friday break in August, over £1000 for a family of 4, gold accommodation, food court dining, that's what we've always done.
That's with substantial savings according to the website.
So even if we get the family fund voucher it looks like the summer holidays is out.
Ds starts secondary school in September so can't really take him then.
I just think it's so expensive when families spend so much anyway on resort:(
We've only ever been before in term time so I'm a bit naive maybe over school holiday prices.
