The Children's Society

EDM number 39 in 2010-12, proposed by Bob Russell on 25/05/2010.
Categorised under the topic of Charities.

That this House is deeply concerned at the content of posters issued by The Children's Society and displayed on church premises which state `A vital project that is helping feed, clothe and assist in finding destitute children somewhere safe to live will close on 30th September due to a lack of funds; when it does, hundreds of poverty-stricken families will be left to fend for themselves'; and calls on the Government to hold urgent talks with The Children's Society to avoid the closure.

This motion has been signed by a total of 13 MPs.
