MUNCH at Park Community School They recognized the issue of food poverty in their community and started a community group called MUNCH to address it, after hearing that the local food bank regularly faced shortages. The organization has reached out to outside agencies for funding and is now providing free nutritious meals and activities for children and their families who attend any Leigh Park school during school holidays. They offer play equipment and learning practitioners to help children learn math and English skills through play. The school nurse is available to address any concerns parents may have.

In these unprecedented times, we have an amazing opportunity to show an overflow of kindness to each other. Our aim is to support families and vulnerable people within our community by partnering with local food banks, collecting financial donations, non-perishable items and toiletries. This campaign was launched at the start of this crisis with the aim to support families and individuals who have been affected in some way by the current situation. Together with support from local councils, schools and the Emsworth Alliance, we have received referrals with lists people who would benefit from this initiative.
