I rely on the good will of others to survive at the moment. All our clothes are from charity shops and I get food parcels from the church and Barnardo’s.

Leading the campaign team is Hilary Fisher.

Hilary joined the organisation in May 2006 to lead a major campaigning push by charities working with children and families to challenge public attitudes to poverty in the UK and campaign for an end to child poverty.

Hilary is currently Chair of the Council of Europe Expert Task Force on Violence Against Women, including Domestic Violence, nominated by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. The Task Force is a Council of Europe sui generis ad-hoc committee directly answerable to the Committee of Ministers.

Hilary is also a Co-Chair of the Women's Budget Group, an independent organisation bringing together individuals from academia, non-governmental organisations and trade unions to promote gender equality through appropriate economic policy.

Hilary joined the Campaign to End Child Poverty from Amnesty International (AI) where she managed the global campaign to Stop Violence Against Women.
