Thank you once again for the opportunity to be involved in such a worthwhile cause, it is truly fantastic.

Thanks from Children Centre, Greenock
Written by M.K., Childrens Centre, Greenock‘The response from both families was fantastic. Both felt the accommodation was first class and exceptionally clean. The starter packs were more than that, very handy and appreciated. The facilities were excellent and the staff very helpful. The site was close to the town which allowed for some lovely walks. Both parents have asked me to thank you and your team personally as they had a great time and could not have asked for more from the beginning to end of the process for the holiday.‘

Welcom to our new website for Children in Poverty Inverlcyde
The link between activities and purpose is simply that no child in our community must feel marginalised because of the impact of poverty. Children from poor families will, as a consequence of our organisation's purpose and activities, feel valued and be empowered to participate - on an equal footing - with their more affluent peers, in all opportunities available to Inverclyde's children. This website will help educate and promote Children in Poverty Inverclyde.
