We are Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Poverty Truth Commission. We live in a society where there are burning injustices. Our current systems are just not working and don’t support people when they are struggling. Wealth is not evenly spread across the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole area, and significant inequalities and pockets of deprivation exist where poverty is an acute problem for many. A Poverty Truth Commission (PTC) is an invitation to become part of the solution. It aims to challenge the status quo and is led by those who have direct experience of poverty (Community Commissioners). There are Poverty Truth Commissions up and down the whole of the UK; we are proud to be part of something much bigger – the Poverty Truth Network – a movement that is seeking to challenge poverty in a different way.
