What does a magic breakfast look like?

We provide schools with low sugar, low salt, low fat, nutritious breakfast food for children. We offer porridge, cereal, bagels and baked beans.
What can a school expect from us?

Magic Breakfast not only provides food aid to schools, but has an expert team to help identify and reach every hungry pupil, offer nutrition advice and training, give parents nutrition and food hygiene training, and advise on post-breakfast activities such as book clubs and exercise sessions.
The team

Magic Breakfast's head office is in London (this office space is kindly lent to us by Pearson), and we have further office space near London Bridge, but our School Partners are located all over England and Scotland so they can be close to the schools they work with.
Why we are needed

Prior to the pandemic, 1.7 million children in the UK were living with food insecurity. This number is, sadly, likely to have grown because of Covid-19.
How Magic Breakfast began

Magic Breakfast was founded by Carmel McConnell, MBE, who started buying and delivering breakfasts to five schools in the London borough of Hackney after hearing from headteachers there that many of their pupils were too hungry to learn.

Teachers at our partner schools report that pupils who have eaten a nutritious "magic" breakfast have improved concentration, energy, alertness, punctuality, behaviour, social skills, health and educational attainment.
