Surge in foodbank use
Last December our foodbanks fed more than a thousand people, including hundreds of children, but this month that figure is expected to be far, far higher.
The foodbank in Filton is open for just two hours a week.
Earlier this year it was regularly getting 14 clients in that period. Recently it has provided food to 68 people in the same period.
Today MPs discussed the crisis for the first time in the House of Commons.
