Holiday Hunger update

Meeting: 12/03/2019 - Cabinet (Item 8.)

8. Holiday Hunger update pdf icon PDF 97 KB

The report by the Director of Housing, Neighbourhood and Building Services seeks approval to continue with the Holiday Food & Fun programme. The programme has successfully provided approx. 7000 healthy snacks and meals during summer 2018.  This programme addresses more than the provision of healthy foods to reduce hunger during the school holidays; and in 2019/20 we plan to do more including the focus on education around healthy lifestyles, increasing physical activity, improving mental health & wellbeing, and bringing communities together in a variety of ways.

 

RECOMMENDED that Cabinet:

 

(1)  recognise future opportunities and recommendations following the success of the previous pilot project.

(2)  agree an allocation of £10,000 from the existing play & youth service budget to allow continuation, growth and longevity of the programme.

(3) seek Cabinet approval to execute the future plans as set out in the   Holiday Food & Fun Programme Report 2019 (see appendix A - section 10)
