Can we really end poverty in Britain?

Yes, we can.

In this groundbreaking book, Helen Rowe brings together the latest research with stories from across Britain to show us that ending poverty in the twenty-first century is possible. She describes the effects of deprivation on our society, institutions, communities, families and individuals – down to their very DNA.

By using a combination of compassion, focus and a plan, Rowe describes how we can end poverty in five years, without raising taxes. Her radical ideas are grounded in practical realities, as she reveals how ordinary processes can yield extraordinary results.

This book has huge ramifications for Britain and every developed nation globally. It will force governments to face an issue that has been ignored for too long. After Covid-19, Brexit, war, austerity and the global financial crash, Britain deserves a more positive future. How do we create it? Eliminating Poverty in Britain has the answers.

HELEN ROWE has dedicated her professional life to tackling some of the big issues that have faced this country from counter-terrorism to, over the last decades, looking at practical ways to tackle deprivation. Her work has taken her from Whitehall to drop-in shelters. Not only has she witnessed at first-hand the reality of poverty in this country, but she also understands how change happens in a real way. It is this passionate and pragmatic approach that sits at the heart of her plan to eradicate poverty.
