Today is the International Day to End Poverty
#IDEP2023 aims to raise understanding and dialogue between people living in poverty and the wider public
2023's theme highlights the importance of lived experience testimonials of poverty
Raise Voices, Change Minds, End Poverty
ALT Can you relate to this? Poem by Jenn Poverty comes in many guises, those suffering do their best to disguise it; the stigma, the shame; the whispering names; always from behind, losing the game; got no voice; even less choice; day after day feels the same; diet is poor; can barely afford; health poorer, often ignored; stress levels high; prices higher. Christmas, ugh, timing is flawed. "Live ones best life" feels like a joke; Kids hungry; cant have ; because you are so broke. (16.69 bank balance, 11 days til payday; 3 kids, 3 cats, a dog and myself to feed... 3 days food in cupboards)... better get creative! This poem was written by Stoke-on-Trent Poet Jen, as part of the Raising Voices project in 2022.
