Bring back the £30 a week for children’s dinners
Bring back £30 for children’s dinner rather than providing them with £5 worth of food that isn’t enough to last the week.
I want to government to do more about this because there are starving children out there and parents stressing that they are unable to feed their children just because the government have decided to give the £30 to another company to provide the food to families, which they only received £5 worth of food.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
The national voucher scheme to provide meals to children eligible for free school meals during lockdown reopened on Monday 18th January. Schools are able to claim back support provided through lunch parcels or locally arranged vouchers since 4th January from the Department for Education.
