  • About us

    This blog is the online space for debate and discussion on tackling poverty in the UK. You will find a wide range of authors – journalists, politicians, NGO workers, and most importantly, ordinary people, sharing their experiences and thoughts on poverty in the UK.

    This is a space for debate, not a space for Oxfam's views. We endeavour to attract a diverse set of authors with diverse opinions, welcome unsolicited submissions, and encourage people to comment on what they read.
