Rebecca's Story

"We have just had a new baby - Rebecca is nearly 6 weeks old. 

Daddy was made redundant and is receiving JSA. Mum is awaiting maternity allowance but because of a delay in the tax office we will not be receiving a payment for as long as 8 weeks. Because of this we are experiencing significant hardship. We didn't expect for the process to take this long and we have exhausted all the financial options available. We are very grateful for the foodbank. Thank you."

Thank you so much to this family. We're really grateful you felt able to share this with us.
