I’ll start by stating my views. Food banks, and now the new warm banks, should not exist in a nation as rich as ours. They have taken over the role of the state in caring for the most vulnerable in society. Even the Trussel Trust themselves acknowledge that they have ‘created a monster’ (albeit with the very best of intentions). It is a monster which the government is quite happy to keep alive. Interesting article below explains it better than I can:
