Thanks Hannah Lambie-Mumford 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.
Well done & thank you for the End Hunger 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 ♥️

met a girl turning 11 today at Brixton Foodbank with her mum. luckily someone had donated an earring gift set so we could give her a birthday present, but no child should need to know what a #foodbank is - let alone be at one on their birthday. it doesn’t have to be like this.
