Health Poverty Action is a mid-sized non-profit based in London, England. It seeks to strengthen poor and marginalised people in their struggle for health. Its approach treats health as a matter of social justice, prioritises those left out by others, and addresses the full range of factors that influence health. Its work focuses on communities facing health inequities, where access to care and dignity in health provision are pressing concerns. The charity has partnered with other organisations, including Medisave UK Ltd and UNFPA, to broaden its impact by delivering reproductive health care and related supplies. In January 2021 it announced financing of about $292,000 linked to the Happy Mums, Happy Tums appeal and government match funding.
