We've got mail 📮

In June, we delivered our open letter to the Government, calling for #FreeSchoolMealsForAll .

This response from Schools Minister Nick Gibb is just not good enough.

To end child hunger in our schools, we need a plan, not platitudes.

🧵 1/7

This year, #FreeSchoolMealsForAll is coming to London primary schools 🍎

A nutritious school dinner, every day, gives children the essentials they need to learn, grow and thrive 📚

This is the future we want for all our children 🌟

Being unable to support yourself and your family and having to use a food bank is humiliating and soul-destroying. Economic mismanagement means many in work, including nurses, are forced to use food banks. Tories tell us we live in world's 5th richest country. SHAME ON THEM.

66 warm meals, tea & coffee in Camden tonight.

As the rich jet off to their holiday homes, we're approached by literal children who have no food.

Huge support amongst Labour members for #Freeschoolmealsforall unanimous support for motion calling for this at 2022 #LabourConference
@uklabour leadership will you do the right thing and commit to implementing this policy when in government?

I just can’t understand why some in Labour are not backing the campaign for free school meals. It would mean many of the children in my constituency don’t go hungry & have the only basic meal of their day. I am appealing to the Labour leadership to back this policy now.

We’re looking forward to being a part of this amazing panel, come and join in the discussion for Universal Free School Meals 👇🏼

It was a privilege speaking at the Socialist Health Association #NHS75 conference yesterday on what difference a #RightToFood could make to alleviate pressures on the health services in tackling poverty & inequality.
