November - Grant Funding for Schools

Greggs Foundation

Here's another excellent grant funding opportunity for schools.

Greggs Foundation - Breakfast Club Programme


Greggs plc took up the charge and established the first ‘Greggs’ breakfast club. The Greggs Foundation now oversees over 430 clubs, providing a nutritious breakfast to over 26,000 school children each day, over 5 million each year!!!

The Greggs Foundation receives funding from a range of partners, often private sector companies including their major partner, Greggs plc.

Greggs Foundation uses the money to support breakfast clubs through an initial start up grant for equipment such as chest freezers to store food items or toys and activities for the club. They also make a payment each term towards other food items and Greggs plc donates bread from the nearest shop.

This approach tends to be very well received by our breakfast club schools, many of whom have worked in partnership with Greggs for over fifteen years. Schools tell us that they like the flexibility of the model, allowing them to tailor their club to suit the needs of the children that attend.

The average club costs just £2,000 to set up and run for a year.
