About this event

Why attend?

Many organisations, from public bodies to charities, want to end child poverty in their areas. This short course will provide you with the insights and tools that you need to understand child poverty, so that you can develop and target your work to have greatest impact.

You’ll be able to apply your learning to target your services on people and places in greatest need, support funding bids and develop your organisation’s strategy.

What you'll learn

The course will help you to understand:

  • what child poverty is and how it's measured
  • the children at greatest risk of being in poverty
  • where to find different statistics on child poverty
  • the strengths and weaknesses of different sources.

To get the most out of this course, participants need to be familiar with simple statistics (such as median and percentages) and be able to use a spreadsheet.

Format

The training will be delivered in English via Microsoft Teams. Following the session, all participants will receive the slides and a recording.
