Get Fair is a new national coalition of organisations and individuals campaigning for an end to poverty in the UK.
The coalition points out that over 13 million people in the UK live in poverty, including:
- 30% of children
- 30% of disabled adults
- 23% of pensioners
- 20% of women
The campaign wants all political parties to commit to concrete measures to ensure everyone in Britain has:
- An income that meets minimum living standards
- Affordable housing and decent neighbourhoods
- Fair access to services, without discrimination
