Several charities, such as the Felix Project, will be given money to provide the ten million meals to families across the capital to help combat holiday hunger. 

Khan said: “The spiralling cost of living is hitting low-income Londoners particularly hard and it’s shocking so many people are struggling to put food on their table. I have repeatedly called on the Government to do more to help those in need and support families during the school holidays, but they have not provided the assistance that is urgently needed.

“That’s why I’m stepping in today with a major new emergency funding package that will provide around ten million free holiday meals to hundreds of thousands of Londoners most in need. I’m committed to doing all I can to support Londoners through this cost of living crisis and will continue to urge ministers to step forward and do the same as we build a more prosperous London for all.”
