The Campaign to End Child Poverty is made up of organisations from civic society including children’s charities, child welfare organisations, social justice groups, faith groups, trade unions and others, united in our vision of a UK free of child poverty.

We campaign to achieve our vision by:

• Informing the public about the causes and effects of child poverty;
• Forging commitment between, and across, the public, private and voluntary sectors to end child poverty by 2020;
• Promoting the case for ending child poverty with this and every future Government.

Chair – Joseph Howes, Buttle UK

Our History

The End Child Poverty coalition was set up in 2003 to leverage the work of a wide range of groups all of whom shared the objective of eradicating child poverty in the UK.

The coalition has worked to inform the public about the causes and effects of child poverty; forge commitment between, and across, the public, private and voluntary sectors to end child poverty; and to promote the case for ending child poverty with Government.
