A new breakfast club run by Greggs at a Leeds primary school will offer 65 children a free, healthy breakfast before school.
The infamous British bakery chain, Greggs, has opened a new Breakfast Club at Fieldhead Carr Primary School in Leeds.
The club offers 65 children a free and nutritious breakfast before school to help pupils feel nourished and prepared for the day ahead.
The club is part of Greggs Foundation's Breakfast Club which launched back in 1999 with the aim to provide breakfast to as many children as possible.
The incredible club has grown to give free breakfasts to 49,000 children every school day at over 770 clubs across the UK.

To date, the programme has served over a whopping 8 million free meals to school children.
Lynne Hindmarch, Breakfast Club Manager for the Greggs Foundation commented: “No child should ever start their day without breakfast, which is why we’re delighted to be opening a new Breakfast Club at Fieldhead Carr Primary School.
“Through Breakfast Clubs such as this, we’re able to support over 49,000 children each day nationally, and new openings like the one at Fieldhead Carr Primary School are helping us to continue heading towards reaching our target of serving 70,000 breakfasts each school day by 2025.”

The children can choose from a wide range of options to kick start their way. Including toast, low sugar cereal, fruit, yoghurt, juice and milk. As well as providing a healthy and substantial morning meal, the club aims to encourage children to chat and socialise with staff before their school day begins.
Greggs customers nationwide can now also donate a breakfast to a child in need for just 25p, simply say “donate a breakfast for 25p” when making a purchase.
Tried and trusted Sheffield indie spot Baker's Yard is expanding its Kelham Island site and potentially dropping its "micro-bakery" title.
Opening just three years ago, Baker's Yard has become a sweet-treat staple in its Sheffield neighbourhood, Kelham Island, so much so, the owners have taken to social media to announce some very big plans.
Known for keeping Kelham Island visitors satisfied with their key lime pie and cheesecakes to loaves of bread and freshly baked pastries, now Baker's Yard is expected to continue doing so on a larger scale.
After putting out a call-out post earlier this month to recruit more front of house team members, the bakery waited just one more week before sharing its latest news.
What was once a "micro-bakery" is now about to undergo a particularly large transformation, as revealed in a new announcement via social media by the Baker's Yard team: "Our bakery is growing, into next door!"
Explaining this decision in further detail, the Kelham Island hotspot has said: "You can expect a greater variety of bakes, breads, pastries and cakes, including bespoke celebration and wedding cakes".
Already known for their bakery and coffee shop-hybrid, as well as the bespoke cake services they offer too, now Baker's Yard are covering all bases with an all-new venture.
Life just got a whole lot sweeter, as you'll be able to get your Baker's Yard fix all-day-long with the arrival of a restaurant, with the team promising, "Baker's Yard Bistro, a French inspired neighbourhood eatery" later down the line.
This year has been nothing but positive for this independent Sheffield business, as back in March Baker's Yard found itself included in The Good Food Guide's Top 50 Bakeries in the UK - Huge congrats.
