A local foodbank says its seen an increase in users of its service as the cost of living crisis continues to bite.
Aylesbury Foodbank says it assisted 1,100 people between December and last month.
The foodbank said they are having to purchase between £2000 and £3000 of food every month to ensure no family goes without.
Chair of Trustees for Aylesbury Foodbank, Kevin Piper told Bucks Radio: "We are blown away by the tremendous support we receive from Individuals and Companies from the Aylesbury Area; Without this support, we would be unable to carry out our work to feed those in need."
"Times are hard for many people, and our volunteers and staff work tirelessly to keep up with the demands placed on us. Sadly, we have seen tremendous growth in demand for the support over the last few years and even since Christmas 2022: As long as there is a need in Aylesbury, we will be here to meet people's needs; we all wish and work towards a future where people do not have to depend upon Foodbanks."
