BACKGROUND
The latest research suggests that the number of children and young people at risk of hunger has rocketed to 2.7 million*, which means that one in five childon'tdon't have enough to eat. When a child is too hungry to learn, when they're aching for something to eat, they can’t concentrate. They can’t absorb information. Big feelings and worries can be impossible to control. They fall behind in their studies.
Magic Breakfast provide a nutritious and filling breakfast to over 200,000 children and young people every school day. We work with schools in areas of high disadvantage, helping staff target the children most in need without barriers or stigma. Magic Breakfast is ambitious to grow our impact and remove hunger as a barrier to learning for all children and young people in the UK.
The government’s children’s Wellbeing Bill, outlined in the King’s Speech includes a requirement for free school breakfast clubs in every English primary school. This is a fantastic start towards ending child morning hunger. Magic Breakfast's influence will be instrumental to ensuring school breakfasts are introduced in a hunger-focused and barrier-free way. In 2021, the Scottish Government pledged a not-yet enacted promise to provide breakfast to primary children.
Thousands of secondary school children are at risk of losing their free school breakfasts from September next year. For many of these students, this is their only opportunity to have a nutritious meal before facing a demanding school day, including taking exams. Solutions across all UK nations still need to be actioned or are severely underserving the current need. Being part of the work of Magic Breakfast is your chance, together with parents, teachers, and people across the UK, to demonstrate the power of school breakfasts and shape the way forward to end morning hunger for good.
