Poverty in Hammersmith
Hammersmith United Charities have published a report by London School of Economics on four low income estates in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham.
The report outlines the levels of deprivation in the four areas and sets this evidence in the context of London and the country as a whole. The report also investigates possible models of charitable support that could be explored in the borough.
