The use of Trussell Trust food banks increased exponentially from 2,614 people collecting three-days' food in 2005/06 to 913,138 collections in 2013/14. This increase slowed last year to reach 1,084,604 collections. The Trussell Trust represents around 40% of all UK food banks, so these numbers are an under-estimate of the total use of food banks in the UK.
