Title attributed to the contract: Research Services - A Pathway to Ending Child Poverty
Description:
Action for Children is a leading children’s charity. In the last year, we worked with over 600,000 children, young people and families across more than 500 services, ranging from children’s centres and family support to fostering and adoption. Many of those we support are struggling on a low-income. We often hear from frontline staff that families and young people they support can’t afford the essentials, that benefit rates are too low, and that rising levels of hardship is getting in the way of service delivery. Poverty harms childhoods and damages children’s life chances, but politicians do not have a proper strategy to tackle it. Work is often described as the best route out of poverty, but many of the families we support face complex barriers to employment. We are looking to partner with an economic research consultancy to set out a potential blueprint for change for a future government to meet some ambitious targets on child poverty.
