We are proud that our Government made the promise of a generation when it pledged to eradicate child poverty, and are proud that through the actions of our Government, over 600, 000 children have been lifted out of poverty. However, we recognise that there is more to do, and that the 2009 Budget offers a real opportunity for the Government to match this promise one and for all. Join us, and other campaigning organisations, as we come together to make sure that this crucial commitment is honoured.

On Saturday 4th October, Labour Students will join other members of the End Child Poverty coalition, for a march and a rally in Trafalgar Square, to demonstrate our commitment to making sure the Government keeps its promise. Come along and join us!

11:30         Assemble on Millbank, near Lambeth Bridge
12:30         March through Westminster to Trafalgar Square
14:00         Rally in Trafalgar Square, speakers, activities, music

If you are planning on meeting at Millbank, or at Trafalgar Square, please let Sarah Mulholland know on 07834 719 265 or Sarah_Mulholland@new.labour.org.uk

Looking forward to seeing you there!
