Story
In 2010 60,000 people used food banks.
In 2023? 2.98 MILLION PEOPLE USE FOOD BANKS.
60,000 people is bad enough but for that to raise to nearly 3 million is a national shame. What’s been consistent in that time is the Conservative Party. They have created a poverty in this country not seen in a long time. This video shows the shocking figures over the years.
So we’re asking you to give what you can to S6 Food Bank. EVERY donation, whatever the size, helps ♥️ I’ve included their bio for further understanding:
In 2024, what is the true cost of surviving? Could you put a figure on what your household needs to survive on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis?
More to the point, what happens when your income falls short?
At Sheffield S6 Foodbank, we’re shining a light on the true cost of surviving for families all across the city. From rent and mortgages to food and hygiene products, debt payments, gas and electric, school holidays, digital access, and more, we’ll be sharing the daily decisions that people across Sheffield make to simply survive.
Along with providing emergency food, your support enables our trained volunteers and partner agencies to provide support with debt, benefits claims, budgeting, housing, employment, and signposting for mental health and wellbeing. Because hunger and foodbank use is rarely just about food.
It’s about surviving.
Can you support us by donating money, raising awareness, or partnering with us? Thank you for all you do!
