New national lockdown restrictions and what it means for you
Clinically extremely vulnerable people
Free school meals during the school holidays
You may have seen the Government’s response to Marcus Rashford’s campaign to provide food to children on free school meals during school holidays. In the New winter package to provide further support for children and families press release by the Government, it is acknowledged that school holidays can be difficult for some families, with children at risk of missing out on healthy meals, activities, and learning opportunities. The press release provided details of a suite of measures offered by the Government as part of its long-term plan to help tackle poor health, hunger and education including, a £170m for a Covid Winter Grant Scheme to support children, families and the most vulnerable over winter and an expansion to the Holiday Activities and Food programme covering Easter, Summer and Christmas in 2021.
The release goes on to explain that these measures will allow councils to directly help the hardest-hit families and individuals, as well as provide food for children who need it over the holidays. Local councils understand which groups need support, and are best placed to ensure appropriate holiday support is provided – which is why they will distribute the funds, rather than schools, who will continue providing meals for disadvantaged children during term-time. We will keep you updated with Manchester’s response to this once we have further details about these schemes.
