Sign the petition to End Child Poverty
12 March 2007
EDCM urges supporters to put pressure on Government
The campaign to End Child Poverty needs your support to get the Prime Minister and the Labour Government to keep their promise to halve child poverty by 2010. Please sign the new petition at:
http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/endchildpoverty - and ask everyone you know to do the same.
Every Disabled Child Matters are active members of the End Child Poverty campaign, calling for urgent Government action to address the fact that 55% of families with disabled children live in or on the margins of poverty. We need as many people as possible to add their voices to the campaign - to help make a society free from child poverty a reality. For more information see www.endchildpoverty.org.uk
