BRITAIN-POVERTY-FOODBANK

Donated children jackets are pictured at the Hackney Children & Baby Bank centre, before being distributed to support families with young children, in Hackney, east London on January 23, 2023. - At an east London church on a bitterly cold day, Beautine Wester-Okiya picks her way through boxes of donated baby clothes, toys and other assorted items destined for local people battered by the UK's cost-of-living crisis. It's the frontline of something the special needs nurse could never have imagined before -- dire poverty in a developed Western nation. "I've never seen anything like this in my life here in the UK," Wester-Okiya, who came to Britain 40 years ago from Malaysia, told AFP.
