More than half of parents (54%) in the UK wish they had had more essential items to care for their baby when it was born, according to a new survey for the children’s charity Barnardo’s.
Barnardo’s chief executive Lynn Perry said: “For too long, the two-child limit on benefits hurt families who were already struggling. Too many children have been going to school hungry, unable to concentrate and returning to a cold home at the end of the day."
