“Kids Club HQ has substantially reduced the time I spend on finance and registers. On top of that queries are answered efficiently and in good time. The customer service has been fantastic since I subscribed to the system in 2018”

Goodbye admin, hello digital efficiency.

See how your club could run smoothly with Kids Club HQ.

This year marks a huge milestone for Kids Club HQ — we’re 10! What began in 2015 as a simple idea inspired by a holiday club founder Martin Judd’s daughter attended, has grown into a trusted booking and admin platform used by hundreds of breakfast, after-school, and holiday clubs across the UK.

From our home in Reading to clubs nationwide, we’ve spent the past decade working alongside schools, providers, and parents to make wraparound childcare easier to manage. And now, we’re taking a moment to celebrate.

A Thank You, In Person

To mark the occasion, we’re hosting four special customer events around the country. It’s our way of saying thank you to the incredible community that’s helped shape Kids Club HQ into what it is today.

Built on Values That Matter

At the heart of Kids Club HQ are three guiding values:

  • Family comes first: We don’t live to work, and we know you don’t either — your time matters.

  • Quality is integral: As the old adage goes, if it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing properly.

  • Wraparound childcare matters: We support the people who make out-of-school clubs happen and thrive. You really make a difference and we want to help you however we can.

These values have guided every decision we’ve made, from product development to customer support, and they’ll continue to shape our future.

Giving Back and Looking Ahead

As part of our 10-year celebrations, we’re proud to support the Mental Health Foundation — a UK charity focused on preventing poor mental health. We’re also continuing to invest in sector-wide events that uplift and connect the communities we serve.

One of our earliest supporters, Michael from FACE Holiday Club in Reading, shared this lovely reflection: “We are the first club for which the Kids Club HQ platform was built, and we still use this system for managing our clubs and bookings 10 years on. It has proved to be very affordable and has made life a lot easier from day one for me, my team and the parents that book with us! I’m looking forward to celebrating with Martin and his team.”

Staying Connected

We’re also continuing our monthly online meetups — Kids Club HQ Office Hours — where club organisers can connect, share ideas, and get the most out of the platform.

Here’s to the Next 10

As we look to the future, our mission remains the same: to help out-of-school clubs thrive and to shine a light on the vital role of wraparound childcare in supporting families across the UK.

Thank you for being part of our journey. Here’s to the next chapter — written together.
