Havering Council are continuing the scheme to support vulnerable children
From 17 May, eligible families will be able to apply for £15 per child to help with meals over the school break.
Councillor Damian White, Leader of Havering Council, said, “Funding school meals once again over the May half term school break shows the ongoing support we have put in place for vulnerable households, and especially those with children, to help them get through these difficult months.
“Whether it be support with meals during the school holidays, help with heating homes or assistance getting food and medicines, I am proud that the Council continues to go above and beyond to help our most vulnerable families through this crisis.”
New applications for the support must be made before Monday 24th May.
Families who have previously used the scheme will automatically receive the funding without needing to reapply.
There is also support available for families who do not qualify but still need help.
More information and details on the eligibility criteria can be found here.
