Food Research Collaboration

Mapping the Growth of the Welsh Food Bank Landscape 1998-2015
2016-03-21 09:30 - 15:00 UTC
A one day conference facilitated by Bangor University School of Environment, Natural Resources and Geography Bangor University and the School of Social Science to exchange information and opinion on the current rise in food bank use, consequential issues raised and on future improvements in delivery.
The dissemination of early mapping of Welsh food banks will illustrate the worryingly growing trend and facilitate discussion on the reasons for this and possible solutions.
The stakeholder workshop will feature contributions by several local food bank organisers to provide evidence of real experiences of food poverty to inform policy makers and political groups at both local and national level within Wales, in order to develop appropriate and sustainable responses to the growing need for delivery of food welfare services.
