Hemel Hempstead / Bristol, 6 April 2020 - BAM FM was approached by Bristol City Council who were struggling to deliver the required amount of free school meals to local school children in the area. A kind-hearted team of five FM engineers rose to the challenge, clearing their vans of equipment to deliver 4,000 school meals (provided by Chartwells) to 66 schools.
BAM FM South West Operations Manager Neil Porter said: ‘This is a great example of how our teams collaborate and come together during this time in the local community. This was not part of the Engineers day to day activity, yet they adapted and stepped in, so that vulnerable school children could still receive their free school meals and to ensure no children in the city went hungry.’
Since our school deliveries took place, the Government has introduced new guidance for meal arrangements.
