Pod Bites: The rising cost of healthy children's lunches

Ensuring parents can afford to buy their kids a healthy packed lunch is all the more important given 900,000 children living in poverty in England are currently missing out on Free School Meals.

In our latest podcast, our Policy and Advocacy Manager Shona Goudie brings us up to speed about what the Government and retailers can do to help families struggling with the cost of living crisis.

It follows some research done as part of our Kids Food Guarantee project.
