Abstract: This report looks in detail at food insecurity among benefit claimants using YouGov surveys of the general public (n=2,600) and of claimants (n=6,300), both conducted for the Welfare at a (Social) Distance project in May/June 2021. We look at two measures of food insecurity:-Any food insecurity, where the quality and variety of people's diets were affected by lack of money (e. g. people couldn't afford to eat balanced meals in the last 30 days);-Severe food insecurity, where the amount of food that people eat has been reduced by lack of money (e. g. cutting the size of/skipping meals in the last 30 days). We come to seven conclusions about benefits and food insecurity.
