Poverty in Leicestershire
New figures show that more than half of the children in some Leicester neighbourhoods are living in poverty
Years of austerity combined with insecure employment mean an estimated 43,677 children in Leicestershire are living below the poverty line even though the vast majority – 30,866 of them – have at least one parent who has a job
The figures are based on data that is about a year old - it is expected that coronavirus has already made the situation much worse
