Foodbanks are fast becoming a mainstay in the UK's social security system. Drawing upon feminist ethnographies, this research proposes to expand upon existing debates by using a case study approach focusing on women's experiences in Walker, Newcastle-upon- Tyne, namely from a foodbank in this area. Research into food insecurity in the UK has identified that women are at heightened risk of experiencing food insecurity, although much less explored are the experiences and drivers contributing to this inequity. This research engages directly with women with experiences of food insecurity, seeking their perspectives on their life experiences and personal circumstances that have contributed to this, and their participation in accessing service provision. By simultaneously observing foodbank interactions and seeking expertise from foodbank service providers, this research takes a holistic approach, developing a deeper understanding of the priorities and needs of both people experiencing food insecurity, and foodbanks in the UK.

食品银行正迅速成为英国社会保障体系的支柱。借鉴女权主义民族志，本研究建议通过使用案例研究方法来扩展现有的辩论，重点关注泰恩河畔纽卡斯尔沃克妇女的经历，即来自该地区食品银行的经历。英国对粮食不安全的研究发现，女性面临粮食不安全的风险更高，尽管对造成这种不平等的经历和驱动因素的探讨要少得多。这项研究直接与有粮食不安全经历的妇女接触，寻求她们对导致粮食不安全的生活经历和个人情况的看法，以及她们参与获得服务的情况。通过同时观察食品银行的互动并寻求食品银行服务提供商的专业知识，这项研究采用整体方法，更深入地了解经历粮食不安全的人们和英国食品银行的优先事项和需求。
