Today, we launched ‘Making London Work for All’ to further tackle low pay and insecure work across the capital.

The project Steering Group brings together workers with experience of low pay and leaders from civil society to ensure the initiative’s success. 🙌

💬Bob Bevil, Citizens UK leader and Steering Group member, said: “At a young age we are told that if you work hard, we will make money and thrive. Such are the structural challenges we face in London this no longer holds true.”

For the past 25 years, the Living Wage movement has helped reshape what fair pay looks like in the UK. 🙌

Liverpool Citizens has worked with Arriva Merseyside (@arrivanorthwest) to secure 200 weekly bus tickets for children in temporary accommodation this summer term.

This means children in TA won't miss out on education & will remain in their safe & trusted school environment.
