We are so chuffed to be supported by @lokiscottishrap talented musician as well as Orwell prize-winning author of 'Poverty Safari'.
He says: "If you are struggling, this is essential. If you aren't, I urge you to support." #hackthepovertytrap #endthedebtspiral #povertysafari
"I am delighted to be involved in this initiative which aims to provide a technological solution to people falling in to the poverty trap by addressing poor credit scores and bounced payments". Thanks to @PaulMaynardUK for your support #hackthepovertytrap
Wonderful to get Dr Lisa Cameron MP's support: "I wholeheartedly welcome Richard Hallewell’s ‘Fairer Finance Hackathon’ search for coders and developers to present tech solutions to break the poverty trap. Quite literally, ‘being poor costs more’ and the impacts can be lifelong"
We are gathering huge support from Westminster for fairer finance. Baroness Lister said: "It’s good to see tech being used to try to tackle some of the problems faced by the many people living in poverty". Check what out other fab supporters say: fairerfinancehackathon.com/s…
