Food provision in East Ayrshire communities

Eat in East Ayrshire ... supporting our communities

The holidays may be upon us, but for our catering teams, it’s business as usual as we extend our free food provision into local communities and activities over the school holidays.

If it’s work, rest or play, we recognise that people function and perform better if their bellies are full.

We are working with a number of local suppliers and partner agencies to provide a range of community food options, to help individuals and families eat well during difficult times.

These provisions currently include:

• Free lunches for children and young people attending our activities over the school holidays
• Pre-prepared food to take-away
• Ingredients and recipes to try at home
• Family lunches offered by local churches and third sector organisation
• Foodbank referrals
