Meals to brighten up a summers day.
Summer is here and with it comes problems for many low income families trying to feed their children during the school holidays. With over 2,000 kids expected to receive food parcels from food banks across Glasgow a new programme aims to help families learn more about home cooking and the benefits of preparing meals with fresh produce on a budget. Councillor Chris Cunningham, the convener of education, skills and early years, said: “School holidays are a joy for children but can increase pressure on families experiencing food poverty.“This worthy project is helping, in some small way, to reduce some of that stress for Glasgow families as well as boosting parents’ confidence in the kitchen.”
