4in10 Policy Forum

We have set up a Policy Forum within 4in10, to bring members together to discuss all things relating to policy and child poverty in London. In Oct 2023 our Strategic Programme Manager, Katherine, joined the London Partnership Board as a representative of the community and voluntary sectors which provides us with an excellent opportunity to feed into high level strategic discussions about the big issues affecting London and we propose to use these meetings to ensure that she is reflecting the membership’s views in these discussions. Sign up to join the mailing list for the forum here.  The Forum meets quarterly and there will be no formal membership – any 4in10 member will be welcome to attend on a meeting by meeting basis.

4in10 Open Coffee Mornings

If you would like to co-host a coffee morning with 4in10 to discuss a particular theme, please get in touch.

4in10 Open Coffee Mornings are free, fun and open to everyone who shares concern on issues relating to growing child poverty in our capital. Open Coffee Morning sessions are thematic, usually online and with one overarching area which frames the discussion. However, the sessions are truly flexible; attendees can contribute, participate, and engage in ways and on areas that matter to them.
