Investigate the food provisions given by Chartwells to families in need

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

We would like an investigation into the amount of food provided to the families who require support feeding their children during the time when they are at home rather than at school because of the pandemic. Proof of poor quantities of food has been freely shared across social media
Justice for families with regards to the companies who have been contracted to provide food parcels to families who would usually be in receipt of free school meals. These food parcels are inadequate and not a true reflection of the value they should be worth. Families are being let down by the government when they need help most, children require a healthy balanced diet, they’re expected to home learn all day, the very least the government can do is provide them with a nutritious & varied diet
