Cost of Living Crisis

In recent months, the UK has seen rising costs, falling real income, and compounding cost of living hikes. The cost of living problem is making life harder for families on the brink of poverty, and poverty is terrible for your health.  The cost of living crisis makes society poorer and more systematically unfair. Health inequities are caused by income, housing, and transit, which are all targeted by price spikes. 

Food prices are steadily rising, with supermarket price inflation exceeding 5% in April. Food insecurity is inextricably connected to poor health outcomes, particularly among children, with higher chances of chronic disease and mental illness later in life.

Hunger hurts your health and at True Care Foundation, We believe that children should be able to learn and play without fear of hunger.

We believe that children should be able to learn and play without fear of hunger. In 2019/20, 26% of children in the UK are considered to be living in absolute low income, with 38% of children in London living below the poverty line.
