Right now, parents are skipping meals so that they can feed their kids.

Children are growing up in homes where there's no food in the cupboards.

This isn't right. And it should be a huge wake-up call for the UK government.

I study social support relationships for children who have a social worker, and this is such a clear and joyous example of why that topic matters. Well worth a read

Hearing today that more than one in three children are in poverty in the UK. Please read Danny Dorling's book, Seven Children, on inequality. I reviewed Seven Children for @theguardian.com and cannot recommend it highly enough. www.theguardian.com/books/2024/s...
Seven Children: Inequality and Britain’s Next Generation by Danny Dorling review – essential reading
Inspired by the documentary Seven Up! and based on real data, this important book exposes the extent of inequality in the UK and what it means for our poorest children
