Ms Road went on: “Food insecurity is linked with malnutrition and obesity, as well as poor mental and physical health and wellbeing, so if we fail to tackle food insecurity, we are going to see a huge increase in demand on health and social services.” In September 2022 in Greater Manchester, 42 per cent of people were experiencing food insecurity, with 56pc of households with children and 34pc without children struggling.
