Following the announcement of the #SpringStatement by Chancellor of the Exchequer, our Academic Co-Directors @profkepickett.bsky.social @profbambra.bsky.social @lukemunford.bsky.social & Prof David Taylor-Robinson have issued a joint statement in response www.healthequitynorth.co.uk/health-equit...

If you haven't seen it already, I highly recommend this book: policy.bristoluniversitypress.co.uk/social-murder and this BMJ piece: www.bmj.com/content/388/... by @gerrymccartney1.bsky.social as sources of accurate evidence about the impacts of benefit cuts on ill-health and avoidable deaths.

My Women and Welfare Conditionality book shows how hard it already was for disabled women to manage work and welfare before the new cuts. Research shows that poverty worsens health.

Spread the word! Exciting new fully funded PhD opportunity to research disabled people's lived experiences of benefit reform and the costs of disability. Deadline: 10 April @uofglasgow.bsky.social @uofgussp.bsky.social @uofgsps.bsky.social @sgsss.bsky.social @clemmiehilloconnor.bsky.social

The Benefit Cap has only ever had one increase in line with inflation since being introduced. @mikebrewerecon.bsky.social explains how this freeze in nominal terms is contributing to child poverty, with the cap becoming tighter in real terms as the cost of living increases.

What should the Government do to tackle child poverty? Join us next Wednesday to discuss with Carey Oppenheim, @aaronreeves.bsky.social, @alexclegg.bsky.social & @mikebrewerecon.bsky.social Register here 👉 https://buff.ly/41g9wF8
