All this week we're tweeting what asylum seekers and their kids get given to eat by the Home Office in hotel accommodation.

Since they're banned from working, ineligible for benefits, and get only £8 a week, they have no choice but to eat what they're given. #homeofficehotelfood
On the left is what an adult we know got given for breakfast today; on the right is what a child received. No proper nutrition, no fresh fruit or fresh milk, no bowl to eat breakfast with dignity. #homeofficehotelfood

Here's what a child and mother got for lunch today. Still no proper nutrition. #homeofficehotelfood
Here’s tonight’s congealed dinner for parents and children. All day and no fresh fruit or proper nutrition.

For kids, it’s now a long wait until their next meal - they always go without breakfast since it’s served after 9am, after they’ve left for school.

Day two. Breakfast this morning for a 7 yr old on the left, for adult on the right - but cinnamon swirl is from us. First piece of fruit in 24 hours.

You’ll notice the items look familiar. That’s because people are given the same thing over and over again. #homeofficehotelfood

Today’s lunch is served. On the left is what a 7 year old we know has received. On the right is lunch for an adult - we’ve also included the ingredients list for the sandwich, which is pretty astonishing in its length and number of acids and preservatives.

Tonight’s dinner for a child (left) and adult (right). One of the biggest problems with this food is it’s often so spicy for kids that they just can’t eat it.

Day three. Here’s breakfast for a 7 year old child on the left (a bowl has unusually been provided for once, but with the same completely unnutritious meal), and for an adult on the right - so many of these meals are crammed into boxes like this.
