By harnessing the power of people  - and by giving the microphone to children - we can work towards a better world. Together, we can rewrite the rules. Because every child’s future is worth fighting for.

YOU HELPED LIFT 450,000 CHILDREN OUT OF POVERTY

Campaigners from The End Child Poverty Coalition (ECP) & Child Poverty Action Group (CPAG) at a stunt to highlight government stats that shows child poverty in the UK is rising.

Because of our supporters - who stood up for children across the UK by emailing their MP, signing our petitions, donating and speaking out - the Government announced it will scrap the two-child limit. 

This is the single most powerful step to reduce child poverty in the UK in a generation, and it all happened because people like you took action.

Together let's keep building a future where all children are safe and happy. Support our campaign actions below. 

The UK Government Must Help End Unfair And Harmful Debt

470 million people live in countries at high risk of debt distress, and children are paying the price.

What happens when governments choose debt repayments over public services? Children lose access to food, healthcare and education.

The UK Government has the power to help fix this broken system and make debt negotiations fairer and faster.

PROTECTING CHILDREN IN SUDAN

 1,000 days of war. 1,000 days of warnings and international inaction. 1,000 days of unimaginable horror. Sudan has reached catastrophic levels of suffering.

The UK is in a unique position to take action as a penholder on Sudan at the United Nations Security Council. This means we are responsible for taking the lead in drafting resolutions and on mobilising diplomatic action.

That’s why we’re teaming up with 11 UK charities to launch a petition demanding the government takes urgent action. 

We're also calling on the UK government to do everything it can to protect children in Sudan.

Email your MP to demand that they speak up in Parliament and write to the Foreign Secretary. It takes less than a minute to send - but can make a lifetime of difference. 

Every child deserves the chance to thrive. But often, rules and systems get in the way. Children face barriers that aren't just bad luck, they're a design of a system.

That could mean children can’t go to school because they’re a girl. Or suffer from diseases because their government hasn't made healthcare available.

Together, we campaign for these children.

We make sure the rights and dignity of all children are protected and upheld by their government.
