This study follows 17 participants as they live on a
budget representative of the average expenditure of
20% of the UK population. This group represent those
on the lowest income and is designed to highlight
difficulties practically and nutritionally in
meeting Dietary Reference Values (DRV''s). The budget
of Pds. 15.97 per person is based on the National
Statistics Expenditure and Food Survey 2005 and from
the study the food allowance is insufficient for
achieving nutritional recommendations. The study
questions whether UK government benefits suffice the
needs of those in need of them and the financial
knowledge of those on benefits. The participants
whom where not from this bracket of low income
households struggled with the transition from their
usual income to their dramatically reduced budget.
In the current economic climate this change could
become reality as job losses result in lower income
and therefore struggles to adapt to financial
restrictions and the other problems related.
