This is the child poverty rate where you live - as 1 in 3 UK kids go hungry

Almost one in three children in the UK lives in poverty, according to government statistics

The average level of child poverty in the UK according to the most recent government data is 30 per cent, meaning just less than one in three children live in households which earn less than 60 per cent of the national average income.
