Jeugdvakantiewerk Goirle

Jeugdvakantiewerk Goirle is a long-running community initiative that organizes activities for children and teenagers during the final week of the summer holiday in Goirle. The organization has been part of local life for more than 45 years. In 2026, its programme runs from Monday, August 17, through Saturday, August 22.

The initiative provides a week of activities for children and a dedicated programme for Het HC, its teenage participants. Its website offers practical information about registration, daily activities, rules, frequently asked questions, and ways to find participating classmates and friends. Parents can also find information about Het HC and its programme.

Volunteers are central to the event, and the organization provides details about volunteering, registration, and community participation. It also works with sponsors and invites businesses to learn about sponsorship packages. News, photos, songs, and updates are shared through the JVW Journal, the website, and social media channels. For 2026, the site reports 630 participating children, 49 teenagers in Het HC, and 139 volunteers.
