Impact of In-Kind Benefits on Income Distribution
Funds research to map in-kind benefits and show how public services affect inequality, take-up and vulnerable groups.

Map free and subsidised in-kind benefits such as food banks, social housing, healthcare, long-term care, childcare, schooling, sport infrastructure and public transport. Build comparable qualitative and quantitative frameworks that translate services into income, assess redistributive effects and segregation, identify local availability and gaps, explain non-take-up, and provide operational advice to reduce inequality and strengthen fairness and cohesion.
