To tackle food insecurity, we need a three-pronged approach to creating safety nets that keep people out of poverty and provide sustainable solutions. We need:

- A Social Safety Net

- A Nutritional Safety Net

- A Local Safety Net

We're proud to stand with the Nation to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day, ensuring Second World War veterans are at the heart of this significant commemoration.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.

Campaign win! Today, the Government announced a significant easing in the rate of monthly deductions from Universal Credit.

This will help keep more money in the pockets of people who are at risk of hunger, and address directly one of the main drivers of food insecurity.

[Royal British Legion @PoppyLegion]

We invite you to join us at our Fields of Remembrance and take a moment to remember those who have served over the years, or reflect in memory of a loved one.
