Increase funding for free school meals and issue meal vouchers during holidays

Closed 159 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the Government to increase funding for free school meals, to increase the money children on free school meals receive to buy their meals, and the quality of the meals they receive. We also want the Government to fund meal vouchers for children receiving free school meals for the holidays.

There are issues over the lack of money to buy adequate food, food that is not good quality for a young person relying on that meal and a need for vouchers in the holiday. It is clear there needs to be some Government action to improve meals and support for families in this cost of living crisis.
