    Published 19/07/24

    Free meals for kids during school holidays

    The council is ensuring that regular meals are available for all children and young people within the borough during school holidays. Food is served at multiple locations across the borough, and there's no age limit for children, meaning that nutritious meals are readily available and families continue to receive support outside of school term time.

    Meals are available over Summer school holidays between Monday 29th July and Friday 30th August. There are no forms, and no fuss - just turn up and tuck in!
