Subject: The JRF General Election Hub Launch special newsletter
 | | Weekly publications and blogs: w/b 9th February 2015 | | | | Today is the launch of JRF's new 2015 General Election Hub, the place for those seeking information about the policies underneath the politics ahead of the polls. On the site you'll find rolling analysis of the parties' pre-election pledges and useful facts about the Government's performance around several major policy issues including living standards, work and housing. Get involved in the discussion on twitter by following us on @jrf_uk or by using the hashtag #ge2015 | | | Low pay is endemic in the UK labour market. While the issue has recently moved to the forefront of the public debate on employment and job quality, it is a longstanding feature of the UK economy. More than one in five workers in the UK experience low pay, a proportion that has changed little in more than 25 years. | | | Better pay makes sense all round, as workers are not the only ones to benefit – employers reap the rewards too, says Louise Woodruff. | | | The UK is increasingly under threat from the effects of climate change, and disadvantaged neighbourhoods are likely to be hit hardest. The Climate Just web tool, launched earlier this month, will help practitioners in England address issues of social vulnerability to climate change. The website has been developed in partnership by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, Climate UK, the University of Manchester and the Environment Agency. It provides free support to local authorities and others who provide services to socially vulnerable people. |  |  |  | | | | No longer wish to receive these alerts?

|  | | The Joseph Rowntree Foundation seeks to understand the root causes of social problems, identify ways of overcoming them, and show how social needs can be met in practice. | |  | |
