The Children’s Holiday Food and Activity project provides a hot meal and snack to Glasgow’s nursery, primary and secondary school pupils during school holidays.
More than 23,000 children and young people are expected to benefit from holiday meals citywide this summer as Glasgow City Council prepares to grant funds to 52 community organisations.
Last summer, the projected number of children and young people benefiting from the scheme sat at 23,224 compared to the actual number of 25,837. This year the number of people expected to benefit from the programme sits at 23,883.In April, the local authority invited 55 organisations to apply for a share of the £1.6 million summer programme. Of those 55 - 52 groups applied including “The Pyramid at Anderson” which has provided holiday programmes in October 2022 and spring 2023.
Glasgow’s budget meeting this year saw £500,000 set aside for the scheme and around £1.1 million identified from previously approved funds to carry forward into summer 2023.
