Food banks were almost unheard of just a few years ago - now they are being opened in the UK at the rate of one every four days.
For Kenny and Leanne Jones, spiralling debts caused by rising utility bills and high rents led them to the St Andrew's Community Centre in north Liverpool.
The goods they will take home from the food bank there to their four children will mean, for a few days at least, there will be meals on the table.
