Compass apologises for poor quality of some UK food delivery parcels criticised by Marcus Rashford
The catering company at the centre of a row over meagre free school meal parcels for schoolchildren has apologised again and will cover the cost of meals over February half-term.
The move by Compass, a FTSE 100 company, came after its subsidiary, Chartwells, faced significant criticism in January when pictures of its food parcels for children eligible for free school meals were widely shared. The parcels were supposed to help children in low-income families while schools in the UK were closed by lockdowns.
