Food banks: Bev's story

Bev, a mother from Wisbech, has told 主播大秀 Radio Cambridgeshire why she's a food bank user - and why the school holidays are particularly tough.

Operators of food banks in the county have told us that the number of people visiting them is on the rise, and some teachers have warned pupils are becoming malnourished during the holidays.
