FMCGOne in five children in the UK is currently at risk of going to school hungry. A statistic which should stop consumers in their tracks as it underlines just how critical the issue of child poverty and hunger is in this country.
To raise much-needed awareness of the issue and announce a five-year partnership with the charity Magic Breakfast, Heinz worked with BBH London to create an illustrated film that captures the feeling of going to school hungry. Magic Breakfast is a not-for-profit which provides healthy breakfasts to children at risk of going hungry in UK schools.
‘Silence the Rumble’ tells the story of Jess who spends her days being chased by a Rumble she can’t ignore, just as she can’t ignore the hunger she feels every day. The Rumble becomes a physical manifestation of the way Jess is feeling, a form that Jess can’t understand.
It is only when a teacher steps in to explain to Jess what the Rumble means that she is able to get the meal she needs.
Magic Breakfast’s ultimate aim is to end hunger as a barrier to education in schools across the country, a mission that Heinz is throwing its support behind. This was demonstrated earlier this year when Heinz gave away 12 million free breakfasts to children at risk of going hungry as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The power of this film comes from its focus not solely on the problem itself but on the solution. It is uplifting as a reminder that businesses can step up to support the fight to end child hunger in the UK.
