Fife College Breakfast Club

Lodged by David Torrance (Scottish National Party) Standard Motion 16 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Fife College Breakfast Club, which has served over 10,000 free breakfasts in just five months; understands that one in seven students do not have breakfast, mainly because they cannot afford it; believes that the lack of a nutritious meal in the morning contributes to detrimental effects on student attendance, studies and health; notes that the Breakfast Club works with Aramark to provide toast, cereal, porridge and a cup of tea or coffee every day to students, regardless of their means; recognises the Club's dedication to ensuring that students are well-nourished and ready to learn, and thanks it for its remarkable contribution to the community.
