This app from The Church Urban Fund (www.cuf.org.uk) provides essential information about poverty levels in every Anglican parish in England, to help Christians throughout England to tackle poverty where they are most needed.Poverty is a very real phenomenon in England. One fifth of children live in poverty. Almost a quarter of adults have no academic, vocational or professional qualifications and almost a fifth of households are living in social housing. In a time of economic stagnation and following significant reform of our national welfare system, many households are increasingly struggling to make ends meet. It is designed to increase awareness of poverty in England and to help churches as they engage with their local community, equipping them with data to plan and deliver targeted activities.The app can give you information about the parish you’re in, or you can search for any parish of interest in the country. It also allows you to see where parishes rank nationally or within the diocese on every indicator. Church Urban Fund is a charity that seeks to transform the lives of the poorest and most marginalised in England.Find out more by downloading the app today.The app includes eight poverty-related indicators (index of multiple deprivation, child poverty, working-age poverty, pensioner poverty, life expectancy, lack of qualifications, lone parenthood and social housing) and two descriptive indicators (ethnic diversity and older population size). All of these indicators are derived from publicly available government data sets and have been converted from Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs) to parish boundaries. In order to conserve accuracy, data for parishes with populations of less than 500 people, where low numbers may distort poverty rates, have been omitted from the tool.
