Overview
This report, written in partnership with the Resolution Foundation (RF) and Child Poverty Action Group, includes new analysis showing that the flat rate cost-of-living payments made last year only increased two-child families’ income by 3.3%.
It also includes first-person accounts of the hardship facing many families this winter.
The key short-term recommendations include:
- uprating benefits in line with inflation next year
- abolishing Benefit Cap and the Two-Child Limit.
