Money Box - Food Poverty
In England and Wales the school summer holiday is just beginning but Scotland and Northern Ireland are already well into their long and, often costly, summer.
But for some families the challenge isn’t just keeping the kids busy, it’s keeping them fed – particularly when food prices are rising.
Felicity Hannah, along with a panel of experts, are looking at what support is out there to help with food poverty and holiday hunger.
Panel:
Dr Megan Blake – Senior Lecturer, Food Security Expert
Billy McGranaghan – Founder of Dad’s House
Jonathan Sharples – Community Support Worker
Reporter: Dan Whitworth
Producer: Amber Mehmood
