Let’s put poverty on the agenda.

There doesn’t have to be poverty in the UK. But over many years, our society has been built in a way that traps people in hardship and keeps them there.

Now, we urgently need to build something better. We need to work together, across every section of society, to make sure that ending poverty is a top priority for our political leaders.

Could you join us to campaign, speak up and take action to make sure poverty is a core priority for the government?

Why are you motivated to end poverty in the UK?

“I'm scandalised by how we make increasing levels of poverty and inequality normal”

“It’s time for change - for social justice!”

“The issues are systemic and poverty is unjust. We have the resources we need to fix this.”

“Because people need a life not just an existence.”

“People in poverty already make enormous contributions to society but as long as they are locked into poverty we are all losing out on the immense diversity of their full potential.”

“No child should have to grow up hungry.”

“I’ve experienced poverty and this is a chance for me to try to end it with other people who are experiencing the same now.”
