The Latest
Released 2 April 2012:
Empty Food Baskets: Food Poverty in Whangarei
The results of this research show a frightening picture for too many children in Whangarei. In a country that has long been a major food producer it is scandalous that so many report going without food in order to make ends meet. The fact that this is the experience of so many New Zealand children makes the scandal even worse.
