Hi all,
I hope you are all having a lovely Monday. My name is Thaira Mhearban and I work for the Women’s Budget Group (WBG) as a Communications Officer.
WBG is an independent, not-for-profit organisation that monitors the impact of government policies on men and women. We put forward policies for a more gender equal future and build the capacity of women and women’s groups to participate in economic debates.
We have campaigned and published extensive research on how Universal Credit is pushing too many women and their children into poverty and how it further disadvantages women.
Our reports have examined the causes and consequences of poverty for women in the UK.
We are keen to speak to women effected by Universal Credit or concerned about the welfare system. Your experiences and opinions can help influence our campaign work in order to pressure the government to make real reform that will show their commitment to ending austerity.
If you are interested in getting involved in the work we do or would like to find out more, please do get in touch [email protected].
It would be great to have a chat and look at how we can work together to input in to economic debates and create progressive changes.
I look forward to hearing from you 😊
Kind regards,
Thaira
