"We supply supermarket vouchers or food parcels to families and individuals who are unable to meet their living costs. Why is this necessary? Loughborough University recently reported that across the UK last year more than 1 in 4 children were living in poverty. In my part of the Country – Birmingham and the Black Country – the figure is nearer 1 in 2. Of those children living below the poverty line around 70% live in a family where at least one adult is working. Employment is in many cases not a simple route out of poverty. Low pay and insecure work are big issues for many families." Mike Weaver, the President of Our Lady and St Kenelm SVP Conference in Halesowen
