Thousands of young people and elderly residents in the town are set to be provided food vouchers as part of funding to support households in need.

- Nic Marko

Hartlepool Borough Council chiefs have drawn up plans for using £1,750,170 allocated as part of the latest round of cash from the Government's “household support fund”.

A total of £742,700 is to be used to provide £100 in food vouchers to be distributed to all children aged 2-19 eligible for free school meals, which should help nearly 7,500 children and young people.

Last year, there were an estimated 7,542 shoppingvouchers awarded to children in low income families through the scheme.
