Council to provide summer holidays food support for families in Burnham area
Somerset County Council will continue to provide help to families in the Burnham-On-Sea area in need of food support over the school Summer Holidays.
The Department of Work and Pensions has extended its Covid Local Support Grant, providing £1.4m to Somerset County Council to support vulnerable families.
The Council is using the grant to fund food vouchers worth £15 per week for children eligible for Free School Meals over the six-week Summer Holidays.
The food vouchers will be distributed by local schools and the Council would like to thank the school staff who have undertaken the work to make sure the eligible families can access the vouchers.
