A Braehead mum who was heartbroken to discover that children who rely on free school meals are going hungry over the weekends has launched a project to feed them.
Alisha Robertson-McNabney came up with the plan for ‘Ma’s Kitchen Stirling’ on Facebook last week after finding out about the extent to which some children were turning up to school on a Monday having not eaten since finishing up the previous week.
She set up a poll on social media asking who was aware that children, aged from two to 16, were not eating from a Friday lunchtime until a Monday lunchtime and 164 people all replied yes.
