National Breakfast Week with PURE & The Town Foundation
Sunday 24th January marks the start of National Breakfast Week, a national initiative created to raise awareness about the malnourishment that unfortunately so many children have to face.
PURE Legal Limited are proud to be supporting The Town Foundation, a charity launched by Huddersfield Town FC chairman Dean Hoyle, as they get involved with this initiative. As part of its overall remit to improve the lives of children and young people in the local area, the Town Foundation launched the ‘Early Kick-Off’ breakfast club project in the autumn of 2012 and has subsequently served nearly 450,000 complimentary healthy and nutritious meals. Thanks to the support of the local community – both businesses and individuals – the project has now grown to serve breakfast to 1,200 children across 18 clubs each and every morning.
Now, the charity is launching their ‘Shake Up Your Wake Up’ campaign, which hopes to shine a light on this great cause. Not only will Huddersfield Town FC players be popping in to surprise these breakfast clubs, several of The Town Foundation’s will also be getting involved by hosting their own ‘Big Breakfasts’, for both guests and employees; the companies include: Orchard Energy, Abzorb, Ferno, Fantastic Media, Blue Apple, PPG and P2 Technologies. However, that’s not all…
In order for the charity to reach new heights, we will need YOUR assistance! Simply send us a picture of yourself enjoying a healthy and nutritious breakfast on social media, and use the hashtags #BreakfastSelfie and #BreakfastWeek in your post. You can even share your photos with the charity directly by tweeting them at @townfoundation.
It only costs 50 pence a day to feed a child a healthy breakfast and the charity is currently providing over 5,000 free breakfasts per week to children who may not ordinarily get one, with your support, we hope we can help to make a real difference.
We hope to see you bright and breezy with a hearty breakfast!
