This research reveals that, in our society:
- Child poverty has been rising since 2011/12;
- 4.1 million children are living in poverty, a rise of 500,000 in the last five years;
- Four million workers are living in poverty –a rise of more than half a million over five years; and
- In-work poverty has been rising even faster than employment, driven almost entirely by increasing poverty among working parents.
