We support @Actn4ChildrenNI roadmap to lift children out of poverty including that to deliver change on child poverty significant investment in social security is needed, beginning with the removal of the 2-child limit and benefit cap.
📢 Our new report, ‘Paying the Price’, provides a roadmap for how 1.2m children across the UK can be lifted out of #poverty by 2030. Read our research ➡️ https://t.co/UlbC9rINUe
