Petition Details

children are suffering from lack of concentration, even resorting to stealing food from school canteens because they are so hungry but can't afford to buy lunch.Government support is desperately needed.parents should have to make impossible decisions like whether to buy food, heating, go into debt.

Additional Information

Knowing that their children are getting a good lunch at school would be a huge relief to
parents who are struggling. These pressures will only get worse as food and energy prices keep
rising. As Prime Minister, you have the power to change this. Please act in good conscience and commit in your Budget on 17th November to giving all children living in poverty a Free School Meal. Children going hungry is not inevitable and should not come down to a political issue or ideology.
