We work nationally and in local neighbourhoods to build stronger communities where there is no one left out.
Pinned
For 40 years, we’ve stood with local neighbourhoods facing the harshest challenges of poverty and exclusion. But the work is not done.

Today we are launching our 'No One Left Out' anniversary campaign. A call to build inclusion for the next four decades.

Research from @thesocialinvest.bsky.social & @universityofleeds.bsky.social shows nearly half of councils in England have youth work “black holes”. Funding has fallen 76%. Adolescence is critical for brain development. We must reinvest.

The UK’s poorest people are getting poorer, The Rowntree Foundation says a record 6.8m people were living in “very deep poverty” in 2024. And over 5m of these were living in households where someone works. The decision to end the 2 child benefit cap will help, but more is needed!
