Up to 11.3 million British people faced hunger in the past year because of a lack of money, a heartbreaking report reveals today.
A study by the country’s biggest foodbank charity, the Trussell Trust, found 14% of the population struggled to put meals on the table as the cost-of-living crisis tightened its grip.
While that percentage would mean at least 9.38 million have been hungry over a lack of cash, the network’s analysts put the figure at more than 11 million.
