Prince Harry will serve food to school children when he visits a half-term holiday activity programme at a north London youth centre.
Harry will tour Roundwood Youth Centre to get an update about the Fit and Fed Campaign which aims to provide children and young people with free activities and a nutritious lunch during school holidays.
Last summer Harry visited East London to learn more about the campaign being run in the London borough of Newham.
At the youth centre in Harlesden the prince will meet young volunteers and coaches from Sport at the Heart, a community sport and wellbeing charity which is part of the campaign, taking part in a handball activator session.
The training will be run by the StreetGames’ Training Academy, and aims to support young people to become sports coaches who can then help out in their local community sport programmes.
Harry will also meet volunteers in the kitchen and serve up a healthy lunch for young children on the half-term programme.
Finally the prince will visit children engaged in games and structured activities outside.
Launched last year, Fit and Fed is a response to the pressing issues of holiday hunger, isolation, and inactivity that many children across the UK experience during the school break.
The campaign brings together community organisations from the StreetGames, Ambition and Sported networks, and last summer was run in 100 disadvantaged neighbourhoods across the country.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
