Episode description

This is the final episode of this mini-series .

It marks 20 years since Hull City Council decided they would provide free school meals for all Primary pupils, saw that the regulations didn't allow for this, and then set about getting those regulations changed.

We've spoken to the policy maker and the policy deliverer. In this episode it's time to hear from one of the teachers who worked in school when the Eat Well Do Well initiative came into being.

Maureen Hulme was a primary school teacher in one the those neighbourhoods that benefited most from Eat Well Do Well. You may not recognise the names of Marfleet or Orchard Park, but the descriptions will be more than familiar.

We opened this series with a politician's belief in how food could benefit his fellow citizens. We've closed the series with a teacher proving how right he was.
