"A real living wage matters so much, with so many people still struggling to keep their heads above water. We continue to see clients every day at NCLS who are the working poor - impacted by low pay, zero hours and uncertain employment contracts, benefit cuts and unaffordable rents.

Providing a real living wage is a big step in the right direction towards making sure many more people are helped out of poverty.”
