Jeremy Hunt! Strengthen Our ‘Threadbare Safety Net’!

Along with Over 50 North East organisations, Difference North East has signed a letter to Chancellor Jeremy Hunt asking him to strengthen our threadbare safety net at this month’s Autumn Statement

“…forcing low income families – who have borne the brunt of the cost of living crisis – to endure yet another real terms cut to their budgets is unthinkable. And would only exacerbate already high levels of child poverty and destitution, the most severe form of material hardship, in the North East”.
The background are images of Jeremy Hunt. On the right-hand side is the logo of the North East Child Poverty Commission. On the left-hand side is a text box in which is written "Jeremy Hunt!Strengthen Our ‘Threadbare Safety Net’! "forcing low income families – who have borne the brunt of the cost of living crisis – to endure yet another real terms cut to their budgets is unthinkable, and would only exacerbate already high levels of child poverty and destitution, the most severe form of material hardship, in the North East".
