The stresses of family incomes can often affect children’s wellbeing and mental health.

Reflecting on our event with Wales Centre for Public Policy on #povertystigma, we continue to share the voices of young people who took part in our #PowerofVoice research project.

#MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

Exciting opportunity today for our #PowerofVoice young people to share the findings of their research project and introduce ideas on ways that #povertystigma can be addressed through policy and practice

Looking forward to working with Wales Centre for Public Policy on amplifying young voices 📣

We’re looking forward to working in conjunction with WCPP this week to host the Poverty Stigma Insight Network meeting focusing on the voice and experience of young people working on our #PowerOfVoice project

If drug use rates are similar across income levels and taxpayer money still funds the testing, what’s the point? It’s just another way to shame people in poverty.
