Food Support Projects
Breakfast Provision
For families who are finding it difficult in the current financial climate we can support you by providing breakfast for your child / ren. If you require this discrete support please contact the relevant Guidance Teacher via the button below.
Once the provision is in place the young person can access the canteen from 8.15 - 8.40am and make a selection from the relevant items, providing their name to the canteen staff, with no charge asked for.

We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That’s why we provide three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to us in crisis. We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK.
Mrs Jo Munro is the main contact for the Aberdeenshire North Foodbank at Alford Academy and can request food parcels on your behalf using an e-referral. Please make contact using the button below.
