Kent County Council has announced a programme of help and support for families eligible for Free School Meals over the half term.
Anyone whose child is eligible for Free School Meals and who is in need of assistance should contact the Kent Together service, launched at the start of the Covid-19 crisis. Kent Together can be reached either via its webpage:
https://www.kent.gov.uk/social-care-and-health/health/coronavirus/kent-together
Or you can call on 03000 41 92 92.
This initiative builds on KCC’s use of the Emergency Assistance Grant, for which the County Council received £1.65m from national government to support those struggling to afford food and essential items. This scheme has already helped many families, but the aim of this initiative is to target rapid support to families over this half term.
You can find KCC’s media release on this here.
