Halloween 2020

For Halloween this year, we’ve had to think outside the box.

There were a few things that set Halloween 2020 apart from all other years — most notably, the coronavirus pandemic and everything that comes with it. But just because we need to remain socially distanced this year didn’t mean Halloween was cancelled.

Trick-or-treating and bobbing for apples definitely weren’t on the cars. The Halloween season is normally a great opportunity for people to connect with their communities and have some fun in their local area. The spookiest holiday of the year was very different this year for children , so SKDP adapted up the way we do things to ensure that Halloween 2020 had the to be epic.
Under the Social Inclusion and Community Activation Programme all group participants received an Activity pack for children and traditional locally made barn brack for adults. The groups had fun brainstorming creative quarantine Halloween ideas and photos show the wonderful talent of the children as they painted their own masks.
