£1 kids chippy tea/dinner (Penygroes, Carmarthenshire)

So many struggiling right now, really nice offer from Mel's Chippy, runs until the end of the School Holidays, which looking around seems to be, for the majority, in Wales, 1st September. It could restart on other Holidays, due to the support for locals.

As well as the takeaway staple, she offers pasta, curry and rice, and meatballs and mash, as well as a piece of fruit and a drink with each meal.

"We're in the middle of a cost of living crisis where everything is expensive, everybody's food bill is expensive, everyone's energy bill is expensive and there isn't a lot of spare cash to go around," Ms Lewis said.

"So this seems like a great way to help everybody and not only that, unlike food banks or other, more formal community initiatives, there's no red tape, there's no forms, there's no ID needed, there's no stigma.

"People can just come in and ask for a £1 kids meal and that's what they get."

Sarah and Mel Lewis said they had served more than 250 cut-price dishes in just under one month.

Mrs Lewis does her best to make sure her budget menu constantly changes ‘because I see the same faces more or less every single day throughout the holidays I try to make sure they aren’t getting chips all the time’.
