School Meal Holiday Scheme returns for summer
The School Meal Holiday Scheme will run again this summer holiday, with applications opening at 9am on Monday 24 June.
The scheme offers meal support over the summer break and will allow eligible families to apply for £90 per child to buy food to replace the meals their child would have received at school.
The scheme is run by Havering Council and is part of the government’s Household Support Fund.
Families that have previously received money for their child or children from the scheme and are still eligible, do not need to apply again, and will automatically receive the money into their chosen account.
However, parents and carers should check the claims criteria on the Council’s website as they may now be eligible to make a claim, or able to claim for an additional child.
Applications will close at 5pm on Monday 1 July.
