P-04-397 Living Wage

Petition wording:

We call on the Welsh Government to stand by their promise to work towards a living wage for every worker in Wales and tell us when and how they will make it happen.

No matter how hard they try the minimum wage simply is not enough for some parents to make ends meet and give children like us the best chance in life.  The living wage means that parents who work would earn at least £7.20 an hour.

We are young campaigners working with Save the Children across the UK for change.  We are campaigning for a living wage, representing the views of young people, families and communities in Wales.
