25 Brand Campaign April

A child doesn't choose poverty - but you can choose to change their life.

With today's cost-of-living crisis affecting many - we are seeking to raise public awareness about the impact of poverty on children and the different forms it can take.

 

We encourage everyone to think about what change they can make to help reduce the effects poverty has on children’s lives.


What would you change for a child experiencing poverty?

We had a week full of activities to acknowledge the impact of the Stolen Generations, learn from our history and explore how we support children and families to remain safe, strong and connected. We also changed our email signatures to display one of our staff, Shannon Smith's, beautiful artwork.
