The UK gov PROMISED to end the need for emergency food.

A study found that kindness is one of the most powerful tools we have for our own wellbeing 🙌
So maybe the most radical act of self-care isn’t just looking after ourselves… It’s choosing to care for others too ❤️

The two-child limit is pushing children to hardship, punishing them for having siblings.
If the UK government doesn't act, they risk forcing more families to food banks. Read more ⤵️

If the government does not change course, it risks increasing hardship and forcing more families to food banks.
