Like the NHS and other public services we all rely on, our social security system is supposed to provide the help we need, when we need it. But the benefit cap holds people back from accessing the financial help they need. We’re calling on @RishiSunak to #MeetTheNeed and #ScrapTheCap.https://www.povertyalliance.org/campaigns/scrap-the-cap-campaign/
The benefit cap locks people into poverty, and prevents them accessing the support they need to live a decent life. Let’s give families what they need. Let’s #MeetTheNeed and #ScrapTheCaphttps://www.povertyalliance.org/campaigns/scrap-the-cap-campaign/
Too many people are already choosing between turning on the heating and putting food on the table. @RishiSunak, will you do the right thing and #MeetTheNeed and #ScrapTheCap?https://www.povertyalliance.org/campaigns/scrap-the-cap-campaign/
The vast majority of households affected by the benefit cap are exempt from working, either because of disability or childcare responsibilities. This means they are trapped in poverty’s grip, without access to the vital lifelines they need to stay afloat. This is an injustice. #MeetTheNeed
