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.

Panel:

Dr Megan Blake – Senior Lecturer, Food Security Expert

Billy McGranaghan – Founder of Dad’s House

Jonathan Sharples – Community Support Worker
