The Scottish Government has poverty targets to meet by 2030, but substantial action and investment is urgently needed to realise this promise and truly ‘shift the dial’ to end child poverty.

CAP are standing with over 150 other organisations urging the First Minister of Scotland, Humza Yousaf, to – as a first step deliver on his commitment to increase the Scottish child payment to £30 per week.
