- 10 months ago
Hundreds of thousands of primary schoolchildren in London are set to benefit from free school meals next year as shocking figures show parents, guardians and carers across the capital struggling with the cost-of-living crisis.
The mayor’s office said it is estimated the one-off £135m funding could help more than 270,000 children in the capital during the 2023-24 academic year.
City Hall says this will save families around £440 per child across the year amid the spiralling cost of living crisis.
