KUALA LUMPUR, May 20 — A food bank has claimed that children in Cornwall are becoming ill because parents are turning off refrigerators at night to save money during the economic downturn.
“The level of need we’re experiencing is now going up and outstripping the donations we’re getting at the moment. It claimed that this indicated that families on benefits were struggling to afford basic living expenses, especially after the £20 -a-week Universal Credit augmentation introduced to assist users during the Covid-19 outbreak was reduced.
Food banks across the country have received distressing reports of hardship, ranging from a youngster fainting in line due to hunger to parents skipping meals to save money for their children.
