Picture poverty

The Our Lives exhibition, commissioned by Save The Children, illustrates the lives of UK children living in poverty, though photographs, film and interviews with the families who took part. Some of the material is available to view via the Save the Children Website. A shocking 1 in 5 children in Scotland, 1 in 3 in Wales and 1 in 4 in South West England are living in poverty. Save The Children is fronting a campaign for the UK government to give more childcare suport to low and middle income earners and so lift children out of poverty.
