Abstract
New research launched by national children’s charity Barnardos and leading grocery retailer Aldi Ireland, found that 25% of parents often worry about not being able to provide food for their children and nearly three in 10 people in Ireland have witnessed child food poverty first-hand. The research comes as Barnardos hosts a forum on child food poverty today, supported by Aldi Ireland. The new research, conducted by Amárach Research on behalf of Barnardos and Aldi Ireland, explores both the prevalence and impact of food poverty in Ireland on vulnerable children and families. The study found that 9% of parents feel “close” to food poverty
