We are a group of young people working on a project as part of the Anti-Poverty week 2019 and are looking to get a better idea of how young people manage their Youth or Newstart payments. We want to give Tasmanian politicians an insight about the 'real' world and hope to convince them to raise Youth and Newstart payments, which haven't been raised for 25 years!

This survey is anonymous and will only take you a few minutes to fill out. You can join our competition and win a $50 shopping voucher if you like and share our Facebook post.
