Ep. 4: Supporting Children Living in Poverty with Cara Nightingale
Description
In the latest episode of the Feeding Britain podcast, Andrew is joined by Cara Nightingale, Funding in Schools Project Manager with Feeding Britain partner One Can Trust in High Wycombe. In this episode, Andrew and Cara discuss how Feeding Britain’s partnership with One Can Trust grew from provision to help struggling families with gas and electricity to provision to meet a growing need from children living in poverty ineligible for existing schemes such as Free School Meals and school breakfast clubs. They also discuss how the lessons learnt from this work have been applied through recent changes to government policy.

Feeding Britain combines practical, policy, and research expertise in the fight against hunger.
