The motion

That the Parliament notes the publication of the Demos report, A Wider Lens, a study about families facing multiple disadvantage in Scotland, commissioned by Quarriers as part of its Family Appeal; understands that the study analysed data from more than 28,000 Scottish households and found that lone parents with children are at the highest risk of experiencing multiple disadvantage and that households with children are also far more likely to experience more than four forms of disadvantage, and notes that Quarriers will use the findings in this report to promote the Quarriers Scotland’s Family Appeal to support families across the country.
