Child Poverty Action Group

The Child Poverty Action Group works on behalf of the one in four children growing up in poverty in the UK today. Our goal is a society where no family goes hungry and every child has a fair chance in life. We provide advice and training to help the poorest families get the financial support they are eligible for, advocate evidence-based solutions to policy-makers and carry out test cases to establish and protect families’ rights.

Advice Line

Advice Line
Our free advice line provides vital help that makes the difference between families pulling through in difficult times or not having enough to eat or even losing their home. 

Representing vulnerable families

Representing vulnerable families

CPAG provided legal assistance to Paul and Susan Rutherford which resulted in their disabled grandson being able to have an additional bedroom for his night carer without the family having the ‘bedroom tax’ applied. This outcome will benefit severely disabled children across the UK.

Helping children and families across the UK

Helping children and families across the UK

Our advice to thousands of welfare rights advisers across the UK helps ensure that struggling families receive the assistance they need. When children grow up poor they miss out on the things most take for granted - school trips, having a friend round for dinner or a new pair of school shoes. They also have poorer health, lower life expectancy and do less well in school.
