A manifesto for tackling child poverty

Poverty is devastating. It puts children’s education, health and life chances on the line.

More than four million children are living in poverty in the UK. That’s nine kids in an average classroom of 30.

This isn’t right, and it doesn’t have to be like this. 

Please share our manifesto on social media:

We need a comprehensive strategy for tackling child poverty.  

These four steps would immediately lift a million children out of poverty:

• Scrapping the two-child limit.
• Scrapping the benefit cap.
• Making free school meals available to all pupils. 
• Increasing child benefit by £20 a week for all children.
