Child poverty toolkit

London councils and individual local authorities

To support Local Authorities in their contribution to the national child poverty target, Inclusion and the Child Poverty Action Group have developed a web-based toolkit that helps local partners to:

• frame an informed debate on child poverty in relation to employment, income, education, health and social services
• analyse the local child poverty story using the most reliable and comprehensive data sources
• develop a local child poverty target
• ensure that local policies are ‘child poverty-proofed’
• design a multi-themed strategy for achieving this.
