Community for Food

01/10/2026

You could be eligible for a grant from Edinburgh Council of £125 for each primary school child (£157 for high school) PLUS money to help with costs during the holidays.

ℹ The Council can sometimes give the grant in special circumstances, even if you don't receive the qualifying benefits.

Please note that we don't administer this grant, we're just spreading the word so that as many families as possible claim what they're entitled to.

📢 Please share!
