End Poverty 2030

In 2020, the Edinburgh Poverty Commission published "A Just Capital - Actions to End Poverty," the largest inquiry into poverty in any Scottish local authority. The City of Edinburgh Council has committed to ending poverty by 2030. We are dedicated to playinga key role in this mission, increasing resources and impact in Edinburgh. In the last financial year, we provided over £740,000 in grants to more than 600 people. While grants offer crucial support, we believe systemic change is essential for long-term solutions. Our work focuses on developing effective local actions and investments designed with community input. We also provide tools for accessing benefits and grants through our online services. We challenge the systems that necessitate our programmes,aiming for long-term change.
