Child poverty in Wales – new insights, next steps

Join us to hear our latest insights on child poverty in Wales.

What is is about?

More than two decades since the advent of devolution child poverty remains stubbornly high across Wales. With the Welsh Government having launched its latest Child Poverty Strategy earlier this year, now is a perfect opportunity to take stock and to consider what actions should be taken next to reduce child poverty.  

Join us as we share our analysis of two new data sources with you.

1. We will provide a deep dive analysis of our latest Snapshot of poverty survey, focusing on answers relating to children and families. 
2. We will share the findings of a survey we commissioned by Beaufort Research into children’s experiences of poverty.

This event will ensure that you have the most up to date information about the extent of child poverty in Wales.
