volunteers and local businesses to make packed lunches during
the summer holidays for children who receive free school meals
during term time. The project is called Bolton Lunches

provide collection points for the lunches.
To collect your packed lunch just go to your nearest

give your child’s name, postcode and age and your child will be
given a free packed lunch. The lunches are freshly made each
day and include a ham, cheese, chicken or tuna roll, a cereal or fruit bar,
mini cheese biscuits, a piece of fruit and a drink.
Bolton Lunches will operate from 25th July - 2nd September
