Background

The government should create a statutory public body with the legal authority to represent vulnerable and low-income people in housing, welfare, data protection, healthcare, and access to justice. This must be independent and publicly accountable.

Additional details

We believe thousands of vulnerable and low-income individuals in the UK face systemic injustice without representation. From housing discrimination to denied welfare and ignored complaints, we think they are voiceless. We believe a public body would give them a platform and legal protection.
