After creating and distributing 200+ parcels in Dec, 300+ in Feb and almost 500 parcels at Easter, I am now collecting for the summer. Any help at all (e.g a retweet 😂) would be extremely appreciated!

That Jack Monroe's pretty ace.
So, I thought maybe as a way of saying thanks, I could give away 50 of Jack's books to people who might appreciate them.
I've bought 25 copies each of Tin Can Cook and Good Food for Bad Days to send out.
If you want one, let me know.

Reignited the @HalfTermMeals Instagram account after seeing these #FreeSchoolMeals “hampers”.
I’ve received hundreds of messages there with similar photos and stories.
The government must do more.

I have had a stonking response on my call-out to places of worship and religious organisations about *how many meals you have provided to local communities since the pandemic began in the UK*. But not enough!!!
Please send me your figures! It's for

Children entitled to Free School Meals will get support through Christmas to next year’s Summer holidays.
There’s still work to do for the families that don’t *quite* qualify for FSM - but it’s a welcome start.

It’s been an absolute joy to work on, but equally incredibly disappointing that it was even needed.
This government need to have a serious rethink and decide whether they support hungry children this Christmas.

@MarcusRashford didn't do all that work and campaigning for free school meals in the summer, for the government to throw it away this half term. @halftermmeals have created a website that shows you which shops are helping out! helpoutwhenschoolsout.co.uk #helpoutwhenschoolsout

Council leaders in Worcestershire are taking action to make sure all vulnerable children in the county receive free school meals during the half term holidays
