The Grumpy Cook in Hastings is set to broaden its free food initiative for low-income families following £30,000 in donations from local and international supporters. The scheme aims to provide meals to children during the summer holidays and potentially extend to weekends, addressing increased demand amid changes to government support programs.

Watch for how The Grumpy Cook's expansion impacts local families as it aims to provide meals on weekends. With increased demand due to government support changes, community engagement will be crucial. Local businesses' involvement could inspire similar initiatives elsewhere.
