Fight UK poverty on Facebook

Next time you're writing on walls and searching old mates on Facebook, why not have a peek at Oxfam's new group End UK Poverty and Inequality Now.

Millions of people all around us in the UK don’t have enough money to live on, struggling more than the rest of us to get a proper education, a decent job and make real choices about what they want to do with their lives. And to top it off, most of them face being looked down upon and discriminated against because of their situation.

The group gives fellow Facebookers a space to voice their opinions and share ideas about how to change negative attitudes towards poverty and inequality in the UK. So far 778 members have read, joined, posted, discussed and signed the campaigns to tackle discrimination across the country.

Check them out – it’ll really help to spread the word about something which loads of us didn’t even know existed, and you never know you might make some new friends!

Join the group and find out more >>
