Abstract

This paper looks at some of the unintended consequences of food banks and the potential barriers they are now creating to developing a fairer society. It will consider how food banks have become part of a vicious circle that is contributing to plugging the gaps of widening poverty within our cities and communities.

It explores some of the aggravating factors such as the impact of austerity which has led to a lower quality of life (Goodman and Field, 2018),

Narrowing the inequality gaps in our cities and communities will require implementing several of the 5P's, interwoven within key strategic partners and stakeholders plan to reverse the erosion, being fought on education, health and income (O'Donnell, Van Doorslaer and Van Ourti, 2015), antipoverty (Ravallion, 2015), food aid (Cooper, Purcell and Jackson, 2014) food aid (Sandmo, 2015) etc.
