Cost of living: Here are some of the eateries across West Yorkshire that are offering free or discounted meals for children this October half term

This week many children across the region have broken up for half term. However, some parents are concerned about how they are going to feed their children with the rising cost of food, energy and fuel bills.

To tackle holiday hunger, some of the country's biggest retailers are offering free or cheap meals for children.

Here is a list of all the places your children can eat discounted or free meals this half term across the district.

Located across several sites in West Yorkshire, children under 16 can get one free meal in the cafe when you buy an adult meal worth at least £4.99 after 3pm daily.

The children's free meal includes one main meal, a piece of fruit and a drink.

Morrisons has announced that this nationwide deal has been made permanent, and extended the operational hours to be all day every day.

What’s more, Morrisons has recently introduced an evening “meal of the day” for under £5 which also includes a drink.

Every weekday from 3pm, a “Daily Special” will be discounted to £4.99 and is compatible with the Kids Eat Free offer, meaning a family of four can enjoy a meal out together for just £9.98.
