I am really happy to have been working on this campaign, it is an issue close to my heart.
I find it shocking that in this day and age in the UK so many children live in poverty.
Read the below (taken from Save The Children's website) and please support this campaign by going to Save The Children's website and signing the manifesto.
This Mother’s Day let’s give mums the help they need to work their way out of poverty.
Planned changes to the benefits system mean that, while many families will be better off, some of the poorest mums stand to lose thousands of pounds.
Most mums want to work. But the cost of childcare and losing benefits too quickly means that working often isn’t a route out of poverty.
We believe mums – and their children – deserve more.
We want working mums to keep more of their wages before they start losing any benefits; and more help with childcare costs.
“It’s a case of either heating or food – one or the other,” one parent in Glasgow told us.
That’s the kind of stark choice confronting the poorest mums across the UK. And as the recession bites deeper, it’s children who will feel it most.
Together we can help Britain’s poorest mothers lift their families out of poverty and give their children the chance to fulfill their potential.
And here are some of the shots I did for press/ editorial minus the sign:
