Our September issue is packed with news! Picture This reaches thousands at the Museum of Liverpool, we announce a collaboration with the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, and our blog explores invisible poverty. Plus, a podcast from an inspiring musical gathering, a research call for parents, and a glimpse of what's ahead.
Hello and welcome back to The Cost of Living Chronicles - this is our BONUS Episode on Music and Social Change! Musicians, politicians, doctors, researchers and many others gathered to confront child poverty through song, reflecting on how music connects people and exposes systemic injustice, honouring struggling families along the way. From protest anthems to soul classics, each song stirred anger, empathy, and pride - proving art can voice what policy reports and spreadsheets cannot!
