Increase in Need and Food

Here at Llandrindod over the past year we have seen an enormous increase in the call on the Foodbank.  It has gone up over 200% on last year.  However the amount of food coming in has declined.  Our local supporters have not stopped giving and we are still receiving donations from both Tesco and Aldi.  A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who is making it possible to help families and individuals in need particularly at a time when the UK government is talking about making huge cuts to disabled people’s social security. More than three quarters of people on Universal Credit and disability payments have already gone without essentials in the last six months and we predict it is only going to get worse.
