We’d like you to help us understand more about what it’s like to be working, but not be able to make ends meet.
More than half of all people in poverty live in working households, with their wages unable to match their living costs. As many as 13% of British workers don’t earn enough to get by.
People are considered to live in poverty when their income, after housing costs, is less than 60% of the median income for their family type. Single parents are disproportionately likely to live in poverty, and working single parents make up three in every 10 households in poverty.
