A couple on benefits with an 11-month-old child have spoken about how “stressful” it is living day to day with very little money.
Marc Wells, 38, and Samantha Parker, 30, visit the food bank at St Richard’s Crypt in Seacroft every Tuesday just so they have enough food for their baby Adrian. Marc has spoken about how he’s been “kept awake at night” worrying about bailiffs coming to his house to take their items while struggles to pay the bills.
Marc receives disability allowance as he struggles to walk ever since a life changing accident when he was only five years old. He was run over by a car when he ran across Easterly Road, following a friend after walking home from school with his sister.
