Meals and More
(UK, 1179092) Browse events
YTD Raised: £35,544.65Meals & More was set up to put an end to holiday hunger and provide holiday provision for thousands of the UK's poorest and most vulnerable children. When the school holidays arrive, it should signal weeks of fun for children, but the sad reality is that thousands of families across the UK will struggle to put food on the table. We believe that no child should go hungry, even when there is no structured support outside of the school term for the millions of children who receive free school meals. That’s why we started Meals & More, to put an end to holiday hunger and make sure that children don’t suffer six weeks of isolation, without a decent meal. We provide support for holiday clubs across the UK where children can enjoy a healthy, hot meal, as well as participating in activities that help avoid the stigma of poverty and the isolation that often follows.
