Nearly a quarter of 'stressed and guilty' Dublin families fearing food poverty as cost of living skyrockets

Nearly a quarter of 'stressed and guilty' Dublin families are fearful of falling into food poverty as the cost of living skyrockets.

New research launched by Barnardos and Aldifound that nearly a quarter of Dublin parents often worry about not being able to provide food for their children - and nearly three in 10 people in Ireland have witnessed child food poverty first-hand.

Parents across the country who are concerned about food described themselves as feeling “stressed” (36 percent), “worried about the future” (33 percent ), and “guilty” (30 percent), about their current situation, among other negative emotions.
