Joseph Rowntree Foundation’s (JRF) comprehensive report, UK poverty: Causes, costs and solutions, presents the evidence for their strategy to solve UK poverty.
UK poverty is real, costly and harmful. Millions of people, many of them in a working family, are struggling to make ends meet. 
This report explains what poverty is and what causes it, highlights trends and projections in UK poverty, and makes recommendations for tackling:
• the high costs driving poverty, including housing
• poverty in childhood
• poverty in working age
• poverty in later life
• poverty for people with complex needs
It gives more detail on the evidence for their strategy, We can solve UK poverty, which sets out recommendations for how all of us – governments, businesses and employers, service providers, investors, and citizens and communities – can act to solve poverty.
