Free holiday lunches

School holidays can be stressful and expensive, and the average food bill can increase by 40%.

The holiday lunch network in Cambridge aims to provide free lunches and activities for children and their families during school holidays.

There are currently nine venues scattered around Cambridge which provide regular lunches, but this isn't enough to meet rising demand.

We have put together a leaflet with information on how to set up a lunch and where to get support from. If you would like a copy, please email communitydevelopment@cambridge.gov.uk and let us know if you’d like us to post you a hard copy or email a digital copy.

We are happy to answer any questions and dispel any doubts you might have. We can also help you find practical support from our own community development team and Cambridge Sustainable Food volunteers to help get you to get started.
