The Prevalence, Characteristics and Distribution of Child Poverty in the North East Region: A report for Child Poverty Strategy Group

Research output: Book/ReportBook

Abstract

In 2008 a Child Poverty Strategy was established for the North East of England. A background support paper was written at the time and was subsequently updated. From those workstreams came a call for a study to provide a detailed analysis of child poverty and the initiatives that have an impact on it.

The paper is in three parts:

Part 1: An analysis of the Family Resources Survey.
Part 2: An analysis of administrative data on the proportion of children living in families dependent on out-of-work benefits.
Part 3: An analysis of the Communities and Local Government Index of Child well being.
