The govt has been accused of “standing idly by while children go hungry” after new analysis showed that more than 200,000 of pupils eligible for free school meals in England are missing out because they are not registered.

"..every Saturday morning.. children come knocking, asking for food, having not wanted to ask for it at home.

Faye Murray, 42, a mother of six children who works part-time at the centre, said: “They know we’re not open but they haven’t had breakfast and are hungry, so we invite them in and give them some fruit and toast. Children are honest. When they are hungry, they grab food with urgency. We are seeing a lot of that.”
