At Bromley Brighter Beginnings, we support and stand with Marcus Rashford in his campaign to #EndChildFoodPoverty. Whilst we cannot supply actual meals, as a charity that works to relieve child poverty across the London Borough of Bromley, we have come up with a way in which we can contribute.
Many of our referred families are eligible for Pupil Premium and therefore receive a free school meal during term-time. We have decided to provide each of those children with a supermarket voucher of £15 to help them and their families through this half-term.
The End Child Food Poverty campaign is so important, and is directly in line with our overall aim to relieve poverty for children. As the economic crisis deepens, we are witnessing more and more families in the area sliding into poverty, as they are all over the country.
Thank you so much for anything you are able to contribute to this initiative.
