Research, policy and next steps
Posted: Thu Feb 06, 2025 4:12 am
Our final session was a live webinar with presentations from a panel followed by Q&A. The panel was hosted by our Deputy Director, Professor Debora Price, and we were delighted to have representatives from some of the biggest advocates and name in the poverty and research space:
Helen Barnard, Director of Policy, Research rcs data malaysia and Impact at The Trussell Trust
Ed Davies, Policy Director at The Centre for Social Justice
Lalitha Try, Economist with Resolution Foundation and
Peter Matejic, Chief Analyst at The Joseph Rowntree Foundation
They each shared a 10-minute presentation on their work and insights into the role of data in poverty research and advocacy, as well as the gaps and challenges. We then had a time of Q&A with some great questions from those in attendance. If you missed this session the video can be viewed below, and the slides are also available on our website.

Figure shows relative risk (log scale) comparing children born at each week of gestation with those at 40 weeks of gestation, adjusted for sex, parity, size of gestation, mode of delivery, maternal age, ethnic group, quintile of deprivation and expected month of delivery. KS2 results are adjusted for KS1 attainment: not achieving Level 2 at Key Stage 1. Results shown are for children born between 1 September 2004 and 31 August 2005 with a birth record captured in HES.
