Leeds Poverty Truth Commission

Leeds Poverty Truth works to bring those with direct experience of the struggle against poverty together with civic and business leaders from a wide range of organisations, and together to address issues of poverty in our city.

We believe that it is only when those who are directly affected by poverty are involved in decisions about poverty that lasting change will happen, working from the guiding principle that – Nothing about us, without us, is for us. 

The Leeds Poverty Truth team includes Kidist Teklemariam, Ian Mayhew, Andrew Grinnell, Jon Dorsett & Vik Perrett. Visit www.leedspovertytruth.org.uk for more information
