answer text

DWP does not monitor or estimate the percentage of people using food banks. We recognise the extremely valuable work of civil society in supporting local communities. Government officials and Ministers routinely meet with a range of civil society organisations, some of which may be connected to foodbanks. DWP reforms are already making the benefits system simpler and helping claimants to move into work.
