Child Poverty Action Group (CPAG)

We campaign to end child poverty in the UK, for good.


More than one in four children in the UK are growing up in poverty. It doesn't have to be like this. Child Poverty Action Group works to prevent and end child poverty - for good. Since 1965, CPAG has worked on behalf of the 4 million children growing up in poverty in the UK. We work to uncover root causes of child poverty, understand its devastating impact, and strive relentlessly towards lasting solutions.

How Your Support Helps

No child should have to worry about mum or dad making ends meet. It doesn’t have to be like this.

Child poverty isn’t inevitable. Your support helps fight for a UK where every child can grow up with security, opportunity and fun. 

Your fundraising means we can:

  • Hold decision-makers to account with evidence, expertise, and the lived experience of children and families
  • Strengthen the advice networks families rely on with trusted welfare rights guidance and training 
  • Win long-term fixes across social security and education that tackle poverty at its roots

Please take the challenge today and help end child poverty, for good.
