Experiences of food insecurity among older people in B&NES: Perspectives of older people and service providers.
This report presents the findings from research commissioned by Bath & North East Somerset (B&NES) Council to examine food insecurity among older residents across the B&NES region. The research builds on a previous study which found that older people in the region were not accessing food support in the numbers anticipated, and that there was scant knowledge about how well older adults are being served by current interventions designed to identify and support ‘hidden communities’. Addressing this was identified as a priority in the B&NES Food Equity Action Plan 2022 – 2025.
