Food banks strained by rising demand
Food banks across multiple countries are reporting sharply increased demand as cost-of-living pressures push more households to seek emergency food assistance. Charities say supplies and volunteers are struggling to keep pace with the number of people turning to them, including many working families. Commenters are pointing to inflation, housing costs and welfare gaps as driving the squeeze.
Why now: Ongoing cost-of-living pressures are keeping food insecurity and charity support in public debate.
