We’ve had some great experiences on X. We’ve built a community around practical action against poverty. We’ve shared learning from our work, and called for policies and decisions to improve the lives of thousands of people on low incomes. But now is the time to continue this work elsewhere. We really hope that you’ll come find us on Bluesky, Instagram, LinkedIn or Facebook. We look forward to seeing you there.

A new report by @SunLifeUK finds the av. cost of the attended funeral they track is at a record high. Funeral costs can cause people to cut back on food and struggle with rent. It’s why we set up Down to Earth, the only UK-wide support service for people facing funeral poverty.

When someone dies and there is no-one able or willing to arrange the funeral, councils must provide one. But in reality, provision is a postcode lottery. Thank you @prospect_uk for sharing our Down to Earth report on this issue & raising awareness. #funeralpoverty

Thanks @fayecurran99 for this @prospect_uk article. 'Campaigners continue to call for better standardisation - for a law that demands more of its local authorities than that they simply bury or cremate someone. The QSA’s report spells out a 10-step plan'. prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas…
