Hello all,

Over the election period, Barnardo's is campaigning to make sure that children and young people are not left out of the debate. We're particular focussing on the impact of the recession on children and young people - which has led to record levels of youth unemployment and increased child poverty.

I thought the members of this forum might be intererested in emailing their candidates on these issues - you can do this through our website, here: Campaign against child poverty | Youth unemployment | Lobby political candidates | Barnardo's

Do let me know either on the forum or directly if you'd like to know more about the campaign.
