What you'll learn:
Resolve Poverty invites you to join their webinar which will launch their new research examining how English regions and localities can take a whole-system approach to reducing and preventing poverty. This research was undertaken with stakeholders across local and regional governments, thinktanks, and the voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector, in partnership with the Local Authorities and the Cost of Living Emergency (LOCALE) project at the University of York.
As many families struggle with rising cost of living, more and more children are pulled into poverty. The appalling scale of poverty across the country is something the Citizens Advice advisers witness every day. Stagnant wages and the sky-high cost of essentials have pushed many families into a negative budget, where their income fails to cover the cost of essential outgoings.
Join the webinar to hear from Cooperation Town partners who run a movement of community food co-ops, self-organising on streets and estates across the country.
