Sheffield foodbanks: S6Foodbank sees near 30% rise in parcel handouts in six months

  • 7 months ago
Data released by the Trussel Trust has shown a 30 per cent increase in the number of food parcels being handed out across Sheffield's S6Foodbank network.

Between April and September 2023, over 30,000 parcels were distributed to families in the city. It is a time period where foodbanks expect demand to drop slightly as money is saved on utility bills over summer.

Harry Harrison spoke with Chris Hardy about the new figures.
