Paris Marathon 2013 · 7 April 2013 ·

Children should be hungry to learn, not hungry for breakfast. Yet one in seven UK children face food insecurity. Magic Breakfast provides expert advice and breakfasts to schools in disadvantaged areas across England and Scotland.

Story

I am going to be running the Paris Marathon in aid of Magic Breakfast.

Magic Breakfast is an amazing charity who provides breakfast to children from underprivileged backgrounds.

Thanks

The charity: Magic Breakfast has been providing free breakfasts for nine years to UK primary schools where over 50% of pupils are on free school meals. An astonishing 32% of children arrive at school without having had breakfast, undermining their ability to learn and achieve so this charity provides a practical, immediate solution to the problem of child hunger and improved child energy and concentration levels.

The stats: An interesting read about Magic Breakfast and the importance of breakfast clubs on Channel 4 News website: Breakfast club boom reveals reality of child poverty. 

93% of Magic Breakfast partner schools saw increased concentration and energy in class with the breakfast club.

88% of schools have seen an improvement in attainment and attendance.

94% of schools have seen healthier eating habits in the children attending.
