Children’s Voices

Information from the Department for Work and Pensions shows that one in every six children is growing up in poverty, a figure rising to one in four once housing costs are taken into account.

The APPG Poverty will organise a programme of events over the next 12 months to bring children from a number of backgrounds and areas of the country together with parliamentarians. They will learn from one another, understand how poverty affects day-to-day experiences, and work on solutions.
