We are members of the End Child Poverty Coalition & have published new research on UK child poverty with CRSP - findings are shocking; all political parties must tell us what their plans are to reduce child poverty. endchildpoverty.org.uk/child-poverty-…

Our new research with CRSP today highlights shockingly high levels of child poverty across the UK 📈Here are the main findings First 👇 2/3 of election constituencies have a child poverty rate of 25% or more. In these areas at least 1 in 4 children is living in poverty
