Food Share gives support to children during summer holidays

Just over a week ago the Welsh Government announced that it would be stopping the support for children who have free school meals during school holidays. 

As a result, Llangollen Food Share is starting a new service to help parents to provide lunch for their children.

The circular above has been sent out to all pupils in the three Llangollen schools.

It says: "Free school meals support for families during school holidays has just been withdrawn by the Welsh Government, but don’t worry!

"The Llangollen Food Share have decided to help local families with free food packs for children. You can pick up your free packs for children on Monday or Thursday from 9am-11am at our centre until the end of the holidays. 

"Please help us to avoid food waste by contacting us beforehand to let us know what you need.
