. @Weavermiles has invited people to join him at the fireplace to share their own stories regarding poverty. From Asia to Africa poverty has affected all of his guests but “the future of the world is in this generation’s hands.” #EDICanB
Audible gasps from the crowd as @EwanAitken CEO of @Cyrenians1968 announced that 21% of children live in poverty with 70% of those families living in poverty have at least one person in employment. #EDICanB

Taking part a the @EDICanB conference, already a great insight from @EwanAitken: we need to understand we are all citizens of Edinburgh. It doesn't matter if we work in private, public or third sector, what matter is that we start driving change for this wonderful city.

My afternoon will be spent listening to how Edinburgh can be Poverty Free. You can never have too much knowledge on this subject and today’s a learning day for me. Great to see an ⁦@Edinburgh_CC⁩ officer contributing. #EDICanB
