Food, Fuel, Finance - Tackling the Poverty Premium Launch

Over the past year, the Iona Community have worked on ‘Closing the Gap in Scotland’ in partnership with Church Action on Poverty, Christian Aid,  Scottish Episcopal Church and ourselves at FiCD and Church of Scotland. The project’s aim was to analyse and develop responses to poverty and in particular to the premiums paid for food, fuel and finance by those who survive on low incomes. The final report draws on their experiences and recommendations.

Please visit the link to download the report and see the attached invitation to its launch on December 8th.
