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

<p>1 in 4 children in the UK get only one hot meal a day - their school lunch!</p> <p>It costs only 22p a day to provide a child with breakfast.</p> <p>Magic Breakfast delivers free, healthy breakfast foods to UK primary schools with more than 50% free school meals.</p> <p>Why?</p> <p>Because in each one of those schools, children start the day too hungry to learn.</p> <p>A hungry child is often unable to concentrate in class. The good news is that Magic Breakfast provides a healthy breakfast to 6000 children each morning, as essential fuel for learning. This improves child attendance, punctuality, concentration and behaviour. All for just 22p a day.&nbsp;</p> <p>Just &pound;3.50 provides a child with a free nutritious breakfast for a month and just &pound;42 will give them a year of breakfasts.</p> <p>Please join me in making a donation.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
