The Greggs Foundation has launched the 'Feeding Brighter Futures' programme, aiming to support UK primary schools in providing breakfast, after-school, and holiday clubs.
This initiative seeks to offer children a safe space to eat, socialise, and engage in enriching activities, thereby enhancing their overall school experience. Schools also gain access to a hardship programme, distributing over £1 million annually in grants for essentials like food, clothing, and home appliances.
This initiative addresses the increasing issue of food insecurity among children, promoting a supportive educational environment. Currently, the programme is conducting pilot sessions for after-school and holiday clubs, with broader funding applications expected to open in 2026.
