It was lovely to take a School Food APPG delegation to the Food Museum, Suffolk today with local MP Peter Prinsley. We visited the School Dinners exhibition, which I opened recently. A great chance to engage across the sector as free school meals expand to 500,000 kids and breakfast clubs roll out.

School meals being served to children

School meals being served to children

πŸ₯³ Great news that #FreeSchoolMeals are being extended to all families in England receiving Universal Credit!

Around 500,000 children will benefit from today's announcement - we'd love the government to consider auto-enrolment as part of the roll out.
