Child Poverty Reduction

Society Matters CIC has worked in partnership with the North East Combined Authority (NECA), and formerly the North of Tyne Combined Authority (now dissolved), to enable employers across the area to enhance the financial resilience of their staff.

Employers get free access to a unique programme of practical workshops, insights, advice, and information that will have a direct and tangible impact on the financial wellbeing of their staff, in a non-intrusive and supportive way.

53% of workers said they can afford essentials each month, but it's tight
20% of workers have nothing left each month after paying for essentials
36% of workers have £50 or less for the month, after paying for essentials
