Britains Hidden Hungry

Hiya Viewers, 

I hope your all alrighty.

I've been itching, while thinking about a programme I watched yesterday night (By accident)- Britains Hidden Hungry http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01nqcbm

I became so clued in just an 1hr of watching this programme.

I wasnt even aware that Food Banks existed!!!!!!!- But I'm aware now.

I was extremely touched, moved & humbled as I watched all types of people from different ranks of social classes… all have to take numerous amount of trips to the Food Bank provided by 

The Trussell Trust  as they could not afford to eat due to not having enough of an income to provide for themselves and their family. 

>>Charlotte<< in particular touched me- I learnt that she was eating just one meal a day, as she could not afford to eat! So she would starve herself till every evening to avoid getting hungry- This would allow her food to stretch for another day. 

>>A middle class mother of 5(Sandra)<< would give her son just bread and butter sandwiches for packed lunch  as she could not afford to give him anything else or school dinners. 

I honestly sat there in disbelief while, I was taken back to early this year, when the company I was working for went bust! I was sadly made redundant from my post , which I strongly! predicted would last a lifetime till I was ready to jump up the career ladder. However this was no the case. I experienced having to Sign onto JSA while I looked for work. This experience taught me to SAVE!!!! and not to take the FAST!! life of trips to Starbucks Coffee every morning for granted!!      

Now that i'm aware of Britains Hidden Hungry- I felt strongly to   get involved to help others who are struggling to find their next meal.

I'm going to Give- Are you? If anyone would like to Give please visit The Trussell Trust  or contact me at kerryngrocia@hotmail.co.uk to set up a fundraise page.
