📢 So two years ago today we joined the Guarantee Our Essentials campaign with @TrussellUK and @jrf_uk – and we’ll keep on campaigning until everyone can afford the essentials. 💚

Norwich Foodbank came to Parliament this week as part of the Trussell Trust #GuaranteeOurEssentials campaign.

They gave me real stories in sealed envelopes — a reminder that behind every statistic is a person. Nobody should be going without the basics.

We're supporting Joseph Rowntree Foundation and Trussell's call for action in Parliament today.

We must make sure everyone can afford the essentials they need to survive without having to turn to food banks and other emergency funding charities, like ours.

Time for some #bluesky thinking on ending the need for Foodbanks. 8846 emergency food packages distributed last year in York is too many. So grateful to generous help of people in York but need to work Together for change. #GuaranteeOurEssentials @trusselluk.bsky.social

Universal Credit and the cost of essentials doesn't add up. Together we can move more people to learn about the @TrussellTrust campaign and urge them to join us in calling on the UK government to guarantee our essentials. #GuaranteeOurEssentials
