We are already experiencing a cost of living crisis. Families in the UK who were just about managing to make ends meet are being pulled into poverty by the rapidly rising costs of living. In the Autumn, fuel prices are expected to skyrocket and food costs mount up whilst the pressures of cold weather increase. But the social security net isn’t providing enough support for people who need it. Despite emergency payments to low-income families from the government, millions are still experiencing a major shortfall in their finances.
Join the Joint Public Issues Team and Christians Against Poverty for a conversation about the crisis we find ourselves in and what next steps are needed for families to receive sufficient support. We’ll hear from people with first-hand experience of poverty, explore how churches are already in the midst of offering emergency provision and discuss the next steps for the government.
