Hundreds of churches have joined a campaign for ‘the right to food’ as an estimated two million people in the UK are malnourished and three million at risk of becoming so. Church Action on Poverty has initiated a campaign for the right to food for all families in Britain. The Government is legally bound by international human rights law to secure enough food for everyone, but the Trussell Trust has fed over one million people between 2014-15 via food banks. They attribute that to a number of things, but in particular benefit delays, benefit changes and low income. They say that churches and charities operate foodbanks and offer food parcels to hundreds of thousands of people, but this cannot be a long-term solution. A growing list of organisations have called for stronger and more coordinated action, to provide food aid and to press national and local government to secure everybody's human right to adequate food.
