Mr Erwin (Principal)
After the government's decision not to continue to fund free school meals over the holidays, the City Council is reminding residents that all those that are struggling to cope with basic essentials (including food and other supplies) during this pandemic can contact the Peterborough City hub for help and advice.
The hub will offer support and direction to other sources of help.
This offer includes families who may be struggling but are not eligible for free school meals.
You can contact the hub on 01733 747474
