Meal on Me (UK, SC045311) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Our aim is to ensure that vulnerable people needing a hot tasty meal can get it. Rather than having a café(s) run the scheme with individuals coming and asking for a meal, our vouchers are given to our partnering organisations who distribute them to individuals. The following diagram shows our main modus operandi.  We also take in referrals and work with our own clients.

By providing local people with basic animal health skills and equipment, their animals are healthier, providing a more reliable source of meat, eggs and dairy products.

Each year, VETAID improves the lives of over a million people.
