Part of this package included the Covid Winter Grant and Covid Local Support Grant, together totalling £269m administered by local authorities to help the most vulnerable stay warm and well fed, with the principal focus on children.</p><p><em> </em></p><p>The Holiday Activities and Food Fund, which provides healthy meals, enriching activities and nutritional education, as well as signposting families to wider local support, has received £220m of funding for the major school holidays in 2021.</p><p><em> </em></p><p>As we recover from the pandemic, Departments will continue to work together to deliver a number of key cross-cutting outcomes linked to the 2020 Spending Review. These outcomes include addressing poverty through enabling progression into work and increasing financial resilience. DWP is leading this work in collaboration with other Departments including, in particular, HMT, DfE, MHCLG and Defra.</p> answering member constituency Colchester answering member printed Will Quince question first answered 27/05/2021 14:05:20 answering member 4423 label Biography information for Will Quince previous answer version 2690 answering member constituency Colchester answering member printed Will Quince answering member 4423 label Biography information for Will Quince
