We are launching an urgent campaign to get #BreakfastInTheBudget.
In July, govt funding for school breakfasts will end. We need new funding to end child morning hunger, close the educational attainment gap & rebuild our economy.

We stand on the shoulders of those who came before. When Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat, she was lifting all of us up. Today, on her birthday, we honor her legacy and courage.

As we enter another lockdown we will be #KeepingBreakfastGoing whether children are in school or at home. Our schools are sending out breakfast packs or, thanks to @AmazonUK breakfasts are going direct to children's homes. Our aim as ever is #NoChildTooHungryToLearn

School says it is the "difference between children starving and not" and how a healthy school breakfast is about so much more than just the food.
