The NEU is currently running a national campaign in favour of free school meals for all primary schools in England. If you would like to add your voice to the campaign you can do so here: Free School Meals for All: Sign the open letter

The campaign is also calling on MP’s, mayors and councillors to publicly support the campaign. So far 41 MP’s and Lords have added their voice to the campaign. No conservative MPs have so far supported the campaign. As we checked the list, we were sad to see that no MP’s in Leicestershire have publicly supported the campaign, nor has Leicester’s labour mayor.

You can find out more about why this is such an important issue here:

You can call on your local MP to support the campaign here: https://forms.office.com/e/ZhFwr7MkZx (it takes about 30 seconds)

If you would like to become a champion for this campaign in Leicestershire, please get in touch by emailing sam.hilton@neu.org.uk
