Safeguard School Milk Funding Post-Brexit

The Issue

Currently UK children receive subsidised milk through two schemes; the Nursery Milk Scheme, or the EU School Milk Scheme. Funding for the EU School Milk Scheme post-Brexit is still under consideration, and with the Nursery Milk Scheme being consulted on later this year, millions of children may be at risk of missing out on the nutritious milk and dairy products that generations before them received at school.

We call on the Government to commit to funding a replacement scheme post-Brexit, to ensure British children receive subsidised school milk alongside their European counterparts.
