Resources
We know that it’s a challenging time for everyone at the moment as the coronavirus pandemic continues. There may be people joining us this evening who are experiencing food insecurity. Please know that you are not alone. Food banks are grassroots, community organisations aimed at supporting people who cannot afford the essentials in life. If you are struggling at the moment, please visit www.trusselltrust.org/get-help/find-a-foodbank and find help through your local food banks.
Here’s a list of resources mentioned by our panellists and posted in the event chat – a huge thank you to all of our attendees for your thoughtful reflections, comments and ideas!
