Listening to @RishiSunak's unprecedented policy intervention in these strange times - job retention scheme paying 80% of wages for workers, higher #UniversalCredit standard rate, more help for renters. Will make a huge difference to people @CitizensAdvice (& @TrussellTrust!) help

It’s #InternationalDayOfHappiness, so we wanted to share some stories that have made us smile in these uncertain times and celebrate the hard work of the #foodbanks across our network and generosity of our supporters

Well done & thank you for the @EndHunger_UK report today - isn’t it scandalous that U.K. hunger is on the rise? Just back from a @magic_breakfast partner school, Headteacher told me that in 30 years of teaching she has never seen so many hungry children. We must bring change ♥️

Around three-quarters of us believe that hunger in the UK can be ended. And we couldn’t agree more. That’s why we’re proud to be part of @EndHunger_UK, supporting their call on all UK political parties to end hunger #ActNow > endhungeruk.org/2019/11/06/w…

Thanks @hlambiemumford for the introduction to all the strong voices in the new report. "We need to address the underlying causes of poverty to tackle hunger" Baroness Ruth Lister recognises main unifying aim at the #endhungerUK launch today.

No one should need to use a #foodbank. But our partners @trusselltrust’s #StateOfHunger report reveals almost 20% of people needing emergency food had no income at all in the month before visiting a #foodbank. We believe #ThisCanChange, RT if you agree stateofhunger.org

Replying to @TrussellUK
No one in the UK should need to use a #foodbank. Let us be clear - hunger isn’t about food, it’s about people not having enough money for the basics #StateOfHunger. But we know #ThisCanChange stateofhunger.org >
