Families across Bath and the surrounding area who are eligible for benefit-related free school meals will once again receive vouchers worth £30 per child for the Easter holiday.
Parents and carers will receive an email from Bath & North East Somerset Council offering supermarket vouchers to support food costs during the upcoming break.
People who received a voucher during the February half-term will receive the email automatically and do not need to reapply.
Once families reply to the email to confirm they want the supermarket vouchers, a second email will be sent containing the links to access the vouchers.
The first email must be replied to within 48 hours of receipt and the links must be converted into vouchers within two months of the first email having been received.
Anyone who hasn’t received an email from the council by Thursday, 30th March should email [email protected] or call 01225 477277 (option 1).
Residents are asked to check their junk or spam folders before contacting the council.
Families who are eligible for benefit-related free school meals but have not claimed a voucher previously can make a claim through the council’s free school meals vouchers web portal here.
Households in emergency need can access other support with food across the area, including via the council’s Welfare Support Team and the Community Wellbeing Hub.
