Professionals canvassed to shape plans to end financial hardship in the UK

The Quids in! Professional Network (Quids In! Pro) has launched its first membership survey to test its plans to help end hardship and poverty across the UK. Over 5,000 professionals across the UK who subscribe to Quids in! Pro are asked to respond to the questionnaire and enter a grand draw worth up to £500*.

Quids in! Pro operates alongside Quids in! Money Guidance, our programme of support for low-income households run and delivered by Clean Slate Training & Employment CIC. The Quids in! Pro network is free to join. It is funded through sales of Quids in! products and services, like our guides, digital licences and training. It is a powerful platform for collaboration, already providing over 5,000 members with essential tools and resources to support those struggling to make ends meet:

• Newsletters share the latest insights and best practice
• We build capacity across sectors events and training for professionals
• Our research amplifies the voices of those who are rarely heard
• We aim to influence policy and level the playing field for people from deprived areas

Clean Slate and Quids in! work in partnership with housing providers, health commissioners, local authorities and support agencies. We believe a grassroots approach is required. We help people in hardship through services delivered by people from hardship: We employ people with lived experience, we actively listen and engage with participants’ immediate needs, we design accessible materials using language they can understand. See more on the history and team behind Quids in! here.

The QIPRO network has an opportunity to make a real difference across the UK. Tell us how we can make it work for you and we’ll enter your organisation into a grand draw, with a chance to win 50% off our professional products or services (including digital licenses, print materials or advisor training) up to £500. Draw closes 28th February 2025.
