From a welfare reform group:
Branwyn has put this in comments on a thread. I do not know where she lives but I expect there are people in a similar position all over. What kind of help do any of you know of in your areas? Do any of the food banks deliver?
I used to be able to eat everyday of the week now, since the bedroom tax I cannot. there are weeks like this week I cannot buy food. I cannot get to a food bank because I am blind so have learned to go without. I ask for help but there is no help out there. you just learn to go without food. I am sure I am not the only one in this position and this is why spending has gone down. people cannot afford to eat
