Seen the DWP’s new #UniversalCreditUncovered ad campaign launch this morning? Instead of spending time on spin, they should tackle the reasons why so many people waiting for #UniversalCredit are forced to #foodbanks. That's why today we'll be launching our own 9 week campaign 1/3

Trussell (@trusselluk) 's Twitter Profile Photo

So far 21 charities have joined #5WeeksTooLong to call for an end to the 5+ week wait for #UniversalCredit. Over the next 9 weeks, we’ll uncover the different impact that wait has on people, from homelessness & health issues, to debt & domestic abuse #UniversalCreditUncovered 2/3

The issues people across our country can face as they move onto #UniversalCredit are in our power to change. If we want to keep people afloat instead of pulling them under, Govt’s first priority must be to end the 5 week wait. It’s #FiveWeeksTooLong 3/3 > action.trusselltrust.org/help-create-fu…

#UniversalCreditUncovered Week 1: #UniversalCredit should be fighting poverty, not forcing people to use #foodbanks. The wait for a first payment is #5WeeksTooLong, the government needs to end it. Help make that happen – email your MP now > action.trusselltrust.org/can-change-ema…

In visiting York's York Foodbank this morning I was able to lend my support to 3 amazing girls who have spent their summer raising money and putting together gift bags for children who need the Foodbank. It was a pleasure to listen to their views about the issues they care about.

Thanks everybody for the amazing donations which we have received this week. You all know who you are. You are awesome! We are especially needing tinned tomatoes and tinned fruit, but we are still desperate for all staple food donations.

1 in 5 people in receipt of Universal Credit think it is very likely that they will need support from a food bank if the £20/week uplift is cut. Please add your voice to those calling upon the government to #KeepTheLifeline trusselltrust.org/keepthelifelin…
