Britain's first 'social supermarket' will open today. The Barnsley store will offer cut price groceries to those on the cusp of food poverty. The shop will be open to members who live in certain postcodes and are in receipt of welfare support.
An anti-poverty campaigner has praised the first community supermarket as a "great idea" and added that restrictions on who could use the resource were "right".
Jack Monroe, who has been posting thrifty recipes online after she was forced to support herself and her young son on benefits, said food banks were only available to those in dire straights as well.
"With food bank referrals you are assessed on the basis of need. You can't just turn up to a food bank, you need to be identified as needing it," she told Daybreak.
"I think this works in the same way, in that it is not a free-for-all. It is for people that actually need that saving."
