Hiking the Hebridean Way...in Edinburgh · 15 June 2020

We are the trusted voice on child poverty. On average nine children in a classroom of 30 are growing up in poverty. That's 4.5 million children in the UK. Our vision is a society free from child poverty, where all children can enjoy a childhood without financial hardship.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Over the summer of 2020, I’m going to hike the Hebridean Way...in Edinburgh! Each weekend, I plan to walk the equivalent of one of the twelve sections of the Way starting on Sunday 21st June 2020. The main reason for doing this is to raise money for the Child Poverty Action Group charity which works on behalf of the more than one in four children in the UK growing up in poverty. 

“We are the strong and trusted voice on child poverty. We collect evidence from families living in poverty, and push forward achievable and long-term solutions to this devastating situation. Any family can fall on hard times and find it difficult to make ends meet. Families need support during these times to ensure all children get the best start in life. We support families across the country by giving frontline workers practical help with the social security system so families can stay afloat. Sometimes families experience injustice. We take legal action to challenge unjust decisions so that families get support from our social security system in times of need.”
