In this episode, we chat to the unstoppable force that is Angie Comerford from food-bank and provider of most things- Hebburn Helps. This episode is an eyeopening understanding of how food-banks not only help individuals physically by feeding them but by providing them networks and emotional support. This episode goes into the realities that national policy such as Universal Credit has on individuals and families that use food-banks in the UK. This episode is raw but should leave you feeling inspired by how communities provide for each other and how amazing individuals such as the folks at Hebburn Helps care deeply for people stuck in the cycle of poverty. 

Thank you for having me over in your food room with all the tins one woman could imagine, you can donate to Hebburn Helps through their Twitter @hebburnhelps and you can find your local food bank here.
