Embroidery of Old Mother Hubbard and her dog peering into their bare cupboard, her saying "bugger" Dog thinking "fuck". Embroidered text outside the image reads (clockwise from the top): Almost all independent Food Aid Network members reported increased need for services in November 2022. Over 1/5 were experiencing issues with supplies of goods. In 2020/21, 42 m people were in food poverty, including 9% of children. In September 2022, the Food Foundation found that 18% of households were suffering insecurity, including 54% of households on Universal Credit. In January 2022 1.6m children were eligible for free school meals.
2022 but still valid, this one speaks for itself... with the help of Old Mother Hubbard and her Dog
