One in four parents struggle to feed children in cost of living crisis
More than a quarter of parents have struggled to provide enough food for their children in the past year amid the cost of living crisis, a charity has warned.
Barnardo’s Scotland said that too many children are missing out on a “good childhood” as parents struggle to put hot meals on the table and heat their home.
Research for Barnardo’s found that 27% of Scottish parents of children aged 18 or under have struggled to provide food for them in the past 12 months.
More than half (54%) said they had had to reduce their spending on food costs to save money over the past year, while 7% said they have had to use a food bank as a direct result of cost of living challenges.
