We use our understanding of what causes poverty to campaign for policies that will prevent and solve poverty; and we provide training, advice and information to make sure families get the financial support they need.

Drawing on our 50 years of experience and expertise, we know what will lift children and families out of poverty. Together with our supporters, we have a big impact. 

We were founded in 1965. Read about the highlights of our 50+ year history, and key founding documents. 

CPAG's financial year runs from April to March, and we publish our annual report in the autumn.
