PLEASE RETWEET: with 36,000 families at our schools in London and Essex, we want to supply food parcels for those in need (on top of free school meals which we’re already doing). We’ll fully fund this but URGENTLY need a supermarket chain to help.

Thanks for letting us know, we’ll let the year head know who can investigate further. If you do experience any issues they are your first port of call.
