One in four parents in low-income households are left feeling like failures – as 22% can't afford a big enough food shop to feed the whole family, research has revealed.
The continued cost-of-living crisis has resulted in a third of parents buying less food now than they were six months ago – with 61% admitting they would go hungry in order to ensure their children get fed.
Two in five (39%), of the 1,000 low-income parents polled, have given their children half of their meal, and 46% have made larger portions for their children than themselves.
