Discontinuation of Holiday Free School Meal Vouchers

Published: Tuesday, 2 September 2025

Due to a reduction in funding from the Household Support Fund in 2025/2026, Nottingham City Council are unfortunately no longer able to provide Free School Meal vouchers during school holiday periods, with immediate effect.  This decision has not been made lightly, and it is understood that this change may have a considerable impact on many households, especially during times when children are not in school and access to meals may be more limited.

Please do encourage families to check with local community organisations and food support services, which may be able to offer help. Additionally there is further information on the City Council’s website - Household Support Vouchers - Nottingham City Council
