I get it all out [of the bank] when it comes in and then I have to make it last for the whole week. This week I had £7.50 to last for the whole weekend.

How To Get Involved

Case Studies Of People Living In Poverty

Case study examples offer a valuable opportunity to demonstrate the real impact that poverty has on the lives of children and families living in poverty in London . The Campaign to End Child Poverty and 4 in 10: The End Child Poverty London Project are second-tier organisations and have no direct contact with families and children. We therefore rely on our members to provide us with real examples of life in poverty in London , which we can use in media and campaign events to raise the profile of the cause.

Please contact Liz Thorne, London Development Officer, (at liz@ecpc.org.uk or Tel: 020 7278 3404) if you are willing to offer your own personal account of living in London or if, as an organisation, you are able to provide personal accounts from families or children who use your service. We will reference your organisation each and every time we use a case study you have provided.
