Hidden Hunger Cambridge - in pursuit of equality
-
- Documentary
Hunger in Cambridge is systemic and pre-dates the pandemic.
With thousands more now facing financial hardship, food banks have seen an increase in families who are “newly hungry”, who have been forced to use support services and claim benefits for the first time. There is concern that these families, and many more, will continue to struggle post-pandemic.
In this episode we talk with Margaret Saner, CEO of Cambridge City Foodbank, and with Gavin Shelton, founder of the community farming initiative CoFarm. We also hear from members of the local community, Vicar David Maher from the Church of the Good Shepherd and from Sam Fox, Principal of North Cambridge Academy.
