Recession Recovery Package for Families - 27th of Sep, 2009
Britain's struggling families have been forgotten in the economic crisis. Banks were bailed out and big bonuses are being paid again, but unemployment is still rising. Today's financial crisis meetings are taking place not in the boardrooms. but around kitchen tables. Without action now, these families will be ignored in the recession and left behind in the recovery.
The Campaign to End Child Poverty has designed and costed a targeted Recession Recovery Package to:
- Keep families afloat and out of debt
- Support Britain's economic recovery and future prosperity
- Lift hundreds of thousands more children out of poverty.
