The Bishop of Newcastle says the Government's welfare reforms have

:01:27.:01:30.

led to a crisis with thousands of people in the region relying on

:01:31.:01:32.

foodbanks. While the Governlent says its changes are designed to bring

:01:33.:01:36.

people out of poverty, the Bishop says at the moment they're laking

:01:37.:01:39.

life harder for some of the North's poorest people. In a relatively

:01:40.:01:46.

affluent society, the fact that people are having to resort to such

:01:47.:01:52.

measures. They are on the bread line. I think that the foodbanks are

:01:53.:01:59.

merely putting a sticking plaster over a wound. It is no longdr term

:02:00.:02:07.

:02:36.:02:43.

made 200% difference to my life getting out of the house. Pdople

:02:44.:02:47.

involved in the project say they have noticed the difference that has

made to people with dementi`. They take the hens, live beings, they
