Joseph Rowntree Foundation: Poverty in Scotland 2024 launch event

MONDAY 7 OCTOBER 11am – 12.30pm

On 7 October, we’ll be launching our Poverty in Scotland 2024 report.

A key event in annual Challenge Poverty Week, this year’s report looks in detail at how the social security system is impacting on households in Scotland, as well as offering an overview of poverty rates in Scotland for different demographic groups.

Social security is an area where both the UK and Scottish Governments can have a huge positive impact on people’s lives. But how can policymakers in Holyrood and Westminster make the necessary changes to reduce the hardship faced in Scotland?

Find out at our launch event, available to join in person and online!
