Application to open for the Christmas School Holiday Meal Scheme







Application to open for the Christmas School Holiday Meal Scheme


Applications for the Christmas School Holiday Meal Scheme will open from 9 am on Friday 26 November.

Through the Government’s Household Support Fund, the Council have allocated funding to continue the School Holiday Meal Scheme for December, which will allow eligible families to receive £30 per child to cover the two-week Christmas school break.


The scheme provides funds to ensure that eligible families can purchase food over the holidays to replace the meals a child would have received during a school day.

The application window will open for a short period from Friday 26 November at 9 am, closing on Friday 3 December at 5 pm.

Families who have previously received payment via the scheme do not need to reapply and will automatically receive the funds into their nominated bank.

If you believe you may be eligible – please contact our school office and we will be please to help you – or you can check out the details on the Council’s website
