From tackling the cost of living crisis to offering life-changing wraparound support, Bob shares powerful stories, unexpected insights, and what it really means to advocate for food justice.
We talk about the shifting demographics of food bank users, challenges around housing and hidden hunger, and the systemic change needed to create a future where food banks are no longer necessary.
