So last week, our Government declared that they will not be providing meals for children during the school half-term holiday. We're not even going to attempt to figure out how they came to this decision, but one thing we do know is that the people of Liverpool won't stand by when a cause is there to be fought!
So many businesses in Liverpool are literally fighting tooth and nail to survive at this current time, yet so many of them are helping the children of Liverpool, whether it be providing free meals, organising food banks or a pay it forward scheme. It has also recently been announced that Liverpool City Council too will be providing meals to children of our city.
We were going to write up a list of the many places that are helping out, but there are so many lists already in circulation. So many businesses are helping out, so instead of this being a list of where you can go to support those children in need, this is a list of businesses that we're proud to have in our city, a huge well done and thank you to each and every one.
Everyone is in a different situation, but everyone can help out here, whether it be to simply share posts, like/comment on posts, make a donation, buy an item or a full 3 course meal, dine in/takeaway, ask friends/family to buy from your local for Christmas presents, it all helps. Let's do our part to help the children and the small businesses. It's no longer a just case of 'buy from a small business and you pay for their kids dance/sports lessons' it's about keeping food on the table and a house warm over winter.
