Simone Hillhands, 34, is one. She has three children aged 10, 13 and 15. One of them has a disability, which prevents her from working full time. Her children's school directed her to the foodbank.
"I need to care for them," she explained.
Reluctant to reveal too much of her personal circumstances, Hillhands confided that her sister had recently been made homeless and the wider family's situation was "really, really hard" with prices rising.
"They've gone through the roof... it's crazy!" she said, adding that despite the pandemic, "last year was a lot easier".
