Information for families struggling due to the effects of COVID
After the government's decision not to continue to fund free school meals over the holidays - the County Council and District and City councils are issuing a reminder to all those that are struggling to cope during this pandemic to make contact. This offer of support includes families who may be struggling but are not eligible for free school meals. If you need support please contact the Countywide hub on 03450455219.
These localities will, as they have been for the last seven months, support people to access food and other supplies if they are struggling to provide for their families; and this will include those who are eligible for free school meals during the holidays. Advice and guidance is also made available to ensure families are maximising their eligibility for other benefits.
HCCPS Foodbank
If you are a family, or you know of a family who are struggling please come and talk to one of the Co-Headteachers or send an email to the school office (in strictest confidence). We will be able to gather together some supplies from our own foodbank as well as point you/them in the direction of some charities who may also be able to help.
