Did you know that ......
Disconnected Communities could be costing the UK £32 Billion annually(*1). At present information is stored in multiple places, in a variety of formats and is often hard to navigate. It is based on things like: local authority areas; specific niches such as homelessness, suicide prevention and isolation; it is rarely connected to other sources and is often out of date, resource heavy to keep relevant & accurate.
The total cost of poverty in the UK is around £78 billion (*2). A report by The Joseph Rowntree Foundation showed that:
- The public service costs of poverty amount to around £69 billion, with identifiable knock-on effects of child poverty costing a further £6 billion and knock-on effects of adult poverty costing at least £2.7 billion;
- This gives a total cost of poverty in the UK of around £78 billion;
- A large proportion of what we spend publicly (about £1 in every £5 spent on public services) is making up for the way that poverty damages people’s lives.
