Food vouchers for families
For this October half term, one £10 food voucher - which can be redeemed in supermarkets and some other shops, will be provided per eligible child or young person. The vouchers will be distributed by your child’s school or college.
Vouchers will also now be available to cover Christmas, February half term and the Easter holidays.
Help with your heating too
If one of your children receives free school meals, then you will also be entitled to a £50 energy voucher per family.
Full details are yet to be released but your schools should let you know as soon it’s all decided.
The vouchers are being funded from money granted to Kent County Council from the Government’s Household Support Fund.
Get your registration in quick!
Kent County Council are asking all families who are struggling but have not yet registered for free school meals, to get their names down quickly.
Your school or college should be able to help you
If you have questions, or you are struggling to feed your children, do please talk to your school or college. They should be able to help direct you for help.
