Feast of Fun small grants
Together Liverpool’s Feast of Fun grants offer funding for churches to help tackle school holiday hunger, by hosting food-related activities for children and families.
We have supported the provision of 14,288 meals at 52 churches across the Diocese of Liverpool area over the last three years (Jan 2021 – Dec 2023).
We are delighted to be continuing the scheme again in 2024, thanks to our funders Meals & More. This is open to churches that are members of the Network of Kindness - please sign up to receive updates.
Download our impact report to find out how 12 participating churches provided almost 4,000 meals, hosting 19 activities over the summer holidays in 2023.
