County Down, Northern Ireland (June 18, 2010) ActivityBreaks, providers of fantastic family holidays and experiences at affordable prices, comment on the success of their involvement with National Family Week 2010.

The purpose of the annual event is to encourage families to spend quality time together, by taking part in various events throughout the UK, hopefully helping them to forge stronger bonds and become happier, healthier families afterwards. As specialists in fun, adventurous family holidays, ActivityBreaks were only too happy to donate a range of exciting holidays and short breaks via the National Family Week website and Heart FM. The prizes included action-packed activity trips in Slovenia, ski breaks in the Italian Alps, and outdoor events in Ireland.

Kevin Steele, co-founder of National Family Week and member of the Council of Social Action (chaired by the Prime Minister) said:

“Families are the bedrock of our lives, and the cornerstones of our communities. We hope that families of all shapes and sizes will take part in National Family Week 2010, enjoying the thousands of events and the many competitions and special offers, or simply spending quality time together. National Family Week celebrates the important role families play in society, as well as the great diversity of families in the UK. We look forward to continuing to work with our partners to give families opportunities to do rewarding things together, and to promote issues facing families to the forefront of the national agenda.”

A second spokesperson for National Family Week added that they were “very excited about ActivityBreaks‘ involvement with our Great Family Giveaway Daily Prize Draw”, and Sarah Smith, Customer Service Manager of ActivityBreaks, commented: “ActivityBreaks.com is delighted to have been involved in National Family Week. We hope that the families lucky enough to win the fantastic prizes on offer really learnt new and exciting things about each other, and strengthened bonds which were already in place. It gives us great pleasure to think that we can change people‘s lives for the better.”
