Long before the school bell rings, a group of Hastings-based volunteers are spending their evenings making meals for those primary-aged children who don't have a lunch.
Revolution Lunches is a community initiative of the Equippers Hastings Trust and has been operating out of Equippers Church Hastings since July 2016.
What started as an idea to fill a need in the community has flourished into something much bigger and as a result the volunteers were recently named as Gull's March "Local Heroes".
Revolution Lunches now supplies about 400 lunches to seven schools in the Hastings area and has 25 volunteers who do everything from shopping to sourcing produce, making the lunches and also delivering them.
Co-founder of Revolution Lunches Pastor Peter Brothers said the response they have received "paints a picture that there is a pretty strong need within that age and within our community".
