Launched last month, it has been set up by The Greggs Foundation thanks to the generous sponsorship of local organisation, Enterprise RAC UK Ltd.

The new club will offer 60 children who need it a free, nutritional breakfast before school to help pupils to be prepared for the day ahead.

The club aims to encourage children to enjoy themselves and engage with school staff and the education system.

Lynne Hindmarch, Breakfast Club Manager for the Greggs Foundation, said: "No child should ever start their day without breakfast, which is why we're delighted to be opening a new Breakfast Club at Whitley Memorial C of E Primary School, thanks to the extremely generous support and funding of Enterprise RAC UK Ltd.
