Pod Bites: Why no child should go hungry

This week two major reports evidenced why no child should go hungry at school and why policymakers need to act now.

Launched during a event in Parliament as part of the Feed the Future campaign, Nourishing The Future and The Superpowers of Free School Meals showcase the benefits a hot meal at lunchtime has on academic attainment levels, school food quality, food insecurity, obesity, behaviour, school attendance, and local economies.

So for our latest podcast we spoke to Alesha De-Freitas, Head of Policy and Public Affairs at Barnardo's, and our Head of Policy and Advocacy Shona Goudie to explain more.
