Two years of Guarantee our Essentials 
 
It’s been two years since we launched our call on the UK Government to embed an Essentials Guarantee into Universal Credit.

This change would provide a protected minimum amount of support so everyone can afford the essentials.

With the support of over 150,000 people who have joined us in calling for change, we’ve seen so much progress.

But we need your help to spread the word further – to remind people what our social security system was designed to do, and its potential in protecting people from hunger.

We have created a guide which gives tips on how you can have conversations with family and friends to tackle misconceptions around social security and to win support for an Essentials Guarantee.

Your voice is crucial to keeping the campaign moving forward.

Together, we can build a future where everyone can afford the essentials.
