Support during October half term
If your child would normally receive a free school meal, you are eligible to apply for a £15 contribution (per child) to support you this half term week.
You will be sent a QR code to your phone, which can be ‘cashed in’ at any PayPoint or Post Office.
If you are struggling to apply online, we can support you through our County Durham Together community hub – contact us on communityhub@durham.gov.uk or 03000 260 260.
Please note this scheme only applies to children whose parents receive certain benefits.
Our Families Information Service has information about support in your local area during half term including food provision during the October half term.pdf.
