I will be removing the Kellogg's article citation from the article because the link is broken.

I will also be inserting a few sentences at the end of the Among Children section stating,

According to the Borgen Project, people are eating about 7% less food but spending 20% more on food. This is a direct result of inflation on food prices. There are times that the U.K. citizen goes an entire day with nothing to eat. The effects are seen mostly on women and children.

I want to add this to the 21st century section after the paragraph beginning with "In 2006, Trussell [...]"

Though Trussell Trust states that in 2013 there were 128,697 people using there food banks, "data suggests that the hunger level may be up to 17 times higher than estimated [...] because many afflicted people do not have access to food banks."

I would like to add this somewhere in the attitudes towards hunger relief section,

Every year there is about "1.9 million tons of waste from food and drinks" throughout the U.K. This is equivalent to about $2.5 billion dollars of food. This food could be given to those living in poverty rather than disposing of it. This could be done by donating to a food bank or lowering the prices to target those who do not have enough money to buy food at shelf price.
