More workers needing food banks - support group
During the cost of living crisis, more workers and volunteers are turning to food banks for support, says Simple Acts of Kindness founder Leanne McDonald. The charity helps families in the West Midlands with donated household items and acts as a resource for other services. Despite facing increasing demand and a drop in volunteers due to financial struggles, the organization continues to provide much-needed assistance, highlighting the urgent need for support amid financial hardships for many working people.
