Text of motion inc:
This conference welcomes the Child Poverty Taskforce & recognises the findings & implications of psychological research including:
the interaction of poverty & mental health for children & families;
poverty, inequality & uncertainty threaten our basic psychological need to feel: safe; able to make decisions about our life; connected; & valued.
the impact of financial instability on stress, mental “bandwidth” & decision making; & better understanding of this would reduce shame, e.g. around budgeting & other choices.
the impact of living with poverty on children’s language, capacity to direct their attention, problem solve & socialise at school.
that to reduce the impact of child poverty, we must reduce the stigma/shame for people living in poverty.(because of the above) reducing poverty is also a mental health & special educational needs intervention.
Include in the Taskforce experts by experience and psychologists; & incorporate psychological research.

@/Keir_Starmer agrees to King receiving extra £45m of public money whilst simultaneously being clear there’s no money for starving children. So did Tories really lose or is this just business as usual. No, not a question. #twochildcap #childpoverty #universalcredit #workingpoor #waronpoor
