Stand up to Child Poverty

Popularity

This is the most popular campaign

There are currently 1 IN 3 CHILDREN living in poverty in the UK. This is UNACCEPTABLE considering the high economy of the United Kingdom as a whole and the power we possess to cause change. Our Government chooses to spend our taxpayers money on things less important then this issue clearly showing their great dedication. I am 17 and have already worked for the past 3 years of my life whilst being in full time education in order to avoid poverty - this shouldn't be the case for every child. We are the next generation and are being treated with disrespect and little care. Its time to provide the basics of life such as shelter, food, warmth and opportunity to EVERY SINGLE CHILD in the UK.

I got it from the website www.savethechildren.org.uk. I know it seems impossible that these figures are true, considering the society we live in but thats the sad thing about it.
