    Situation

    Of the over 3 million children at risk of food insecurity in the UK, only 1.3 million children benefit from Free School Meals. Over 1.7 million children from low-income families are still at a serious risk of hunger and malnutrition, especially during the pandemic when incomes have reduced for a lot of families. Malnutrition among children causes damage to their over-all development and ability to cope at schools, besides increasing the social inequality amongst the children.

    Solution

    The Nourish to Flourish project by TAPF UK serves hot, freshly prepared vegetarian meals to children in food poverty. Using efficient kitchen technology, we are able to feed a healthy meal to a child for a donation of just £1.25, without compromising on nutrition or hygiene. We’ve been chosen by the BBC as the Global Food Champion of 2019. Having served over 100,000 hot meals to children since 2019, we are now ready to serve even more children in 2021.
