H.Y.P Holidays was founded in 1974 to provide financial and physical assistance to disabled people, for holiday purposes. Holidays have been arranged since then in West Germany, Greece, Holland, Jersey, Belgium, Majorca and various locations in England & Wales. See some of our Holiday Pictures
Holiday locations are normally viewed by members of our committee prior to booking, to ensure suitability of hotels, coach trips, local places of interest, etc.
Since 1986 we have purchased 4 holiday chalets for use by disabled people. The original chalet at Bracklesham_Bay is no longer used, but we have 2 chalets on site at Camber_Sands near Rye, East Sussex, and one at California_Sands near Caister, Norfolk (THIS UNIT SOLD MAY 2003).
All units are hired out to disabled groups, families or individuals at a reasonable rate. The income from hiring out covers the yearly charges for ground rent, rates, insurance, etc. Pictures of some our fund-raising efforts.
We are always interested in hearing from disabled people that could benefit from our services. We are also interested in hearing from able persons that would be keen to become voluntary helpers on any of our group holidays.
Membership of the organisation is now £5 per person per year, renewable January each year regardless of which month membership originally taken out. A quarterly newsletter is sent to all members.
A reunion is to be held in Bournemouth in September 2006. We are at present contacting members that have joined the holidays over the years. In October we will be organising a 10-day holiday to Tenerife. More news will follow on this in a couple of weeks. Click here for photos of the 2006 Reunion
We depend entirely on fund-raising and charitable donations. If you feel you could assist us with raising funds, please contact us at the address or phone number as shown above or Click Here to Email.
