Massive thank you to The National Lottery Community Fund The National Lottery Community Fund for the huge donation of £20,000! This funding comes at a time where we are increasingly having to buy in supplies as donations can no longer sustain the demand. Thank you so much! #ItStartsWithCommunity

BREAKING 🚨 The number of people facing hunger and hardship in the UK has hit a new record - 9.3 MILLION people. Without urgent action, we sadly predict a further 425,000 people will face hunger by 2026. But it doesn't have to be this way. The UK government CAN change this.

❗BREAKING Veterans are TWICE AS LIKELY to run out of food than people who have never served in the armed forces. This is sad and shocking news – and the UK government has a moral responsibility to act. More details on our new research 🧵 ⤵️
