Provide free school meal vouchers directly to parents in need.
Stop Chartwells receiving our public money in replacement of food vouchers. The quality of food parcels are absolutely dyer! Children are going hungry in this third lockdown because parents are not receiving support for their children’s food needs! And in some cases getting no food support at all.
Provide food vouchers directly to parents in need! In this third lockdown.
