🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 04/09/2026You probably know someone who is struggling financially... You might just not know that they're struggling.

🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Having a job should mean being able to afford the essentials, but increasingly, that's not the reality for many people across the UK.

🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 19/08/2026New data from Trussell shows that working households now make up 30% of food bank users in London. Food banks provide a vital lifeline, but they should never be the solution to in-work poverty. 👉 bankuet.co.uk/givenow 001

🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 19/07/2026For some children, summer means adventures, ice creams and days at the park. For others, it means uncertainty about where their next meal will come from.

🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 09/07/2026A new report has found that rising living costs, debt and insecure work are among the key factors contributing to record levels of modern slavery in the UK. It's a reminder that poverty doesn't exist in isolation. Its impact reaches far beyond hunger. 000
🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 05/07/2026A new study has highlighted something that should stop us in our tracks. Poverty isn't just about what's in a child's lunchbox or whether the heating is on. It can influence how children grow, learn and develop. That's why supporting families matters. 000

Across the UK, food banks are seeing people who never imagined they would need help walking through their doors. 👉 bankuet.co.uk/givenow 000
🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 28/06/2026It's easy to think food insecurity happens to 'other people.' But for many, all it takes is a redundancy, a relationship breakdown, an illness, an unexpected bill, or a change in circumstances to turn life upside down. That's why empathy and community matter. 👉 bankuet.co.uk/givenow 000
🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 26/06/2026But the reality is that food insecurity affects people from all walks of life: people with jobs, families, mortgages, qualifications, and responsibilities. Food insecurity doesn't have a look, it doesn't discriminate, and that's why reducing stigma matters just as much as increasing support. 000

🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 05/06/2026On World Environment Day, it’s important to remember that food waste and food poverty are deeply connected. That’s why Bankuet works differently. We help food banks get exactly what they need, when they need it. 👉 bankuet.co.uk/givenow 000
🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 04/06/2026For children, digital poverty can directly affect their education 📚 In a world where homework, research, and communication with teachers increasingly take place online, access to technology is an essential part of education.

🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 31/05/2026One thing the comments reminded us of is that there’s still a lot of misunderstanding around food bank use 📲 Needing support shouldn’t mean losing choice, nutrition, or dignity.

🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 24/05/2026It's very easy to take food for granted. Everyone having access to food is a world we dream of, but not the world we live in. Hunger is closer than you think. It's in your community, in your street, and possibly in your workplace. 👉 bankuet.co.uk/givenow 000
🚚 Bankuet @bankuet.bsky.social · 21/05/2026When a food bank closes, it’s not just a building shutting its doors. It's families losing a lifeline. Individuals are losing somewhere to turn to in a crisis. Communities losing vital support. Consider giving monthly to your food bank through Bankuet 👉 bankuet.co.uk/givenow 000
