Families in Nottingham are set to receive food vouchers and free activites over Christmas. It comes as Nottingham City Council aims to support struggling families during the festive period.
£15-a-week vouchers will be given to all pupils who receive free school meals (FSM) during the half-term. They will be issued to parents ahead of their children breaking up from school.
There will also be a number of outdoor holiday activities across Nottingham. At these, FSM pupils will receive a free lunch, plus a programme of activities focused on healthy eating, fitness and mental health.
