Unpaid work is still common in this country. In some industries, like real estate and construction, we've found that more than half of employers offer unpaid and underpaid internships. When work isn't properly paid, working class people miss out. suttontrust.com/our-research/u…

📻 It was great to hear our latest report The Good Life? discussed in such depth in yesterday’s @BBCRadio4 programme by @EvanHD and @CatRentzenbrink. In addition to discussing key findings from the report, Cathy touched on her own personal experiences with social mobility and the mixed feelings that come along with moving up in the world. 💬 “So you might have thought people who are on an upward trajectory would be the happiest cause they start with not much, end up with a lot. So, the reality, well, exceeds the expectations. But it does just seem it doesn't work that way. And that's what's so interesting about this.” 📑Read the findings of the report here: suttontrust.com/our-research/t…

🚨 NEW: There is a ‘happiness gap’ between people born into different social classes, we have found. Our research with @coopukcampaigns finds that wellbeing remains closely tied to the social status you’re born into, but social mobility helps to close most of this gap ⬇️🧵

🎧Really interesting podcast episode from The Rest Is Entertainment @restisents on nepotism and the difficulties faced by young people in breaking into the entertainment industry without those prior connections. Our research found that younger adults from working-class backgrounds are 4x less likely to work in the creative industries compared to their middle-class peers.

Local government plays a vital part in public service delivery with responsibilities for schools, housing, planning, social care, and more. Our research found that just 10% of local government leaders went to private school - less than half of the rate of MPs ⬇️
