Skint Estate, is gritty, profound and darkly funny; a first-hand account of life below the poverty line as a single mother in austerity Britain. In this extraordinary debut, Cash Carraway details the day to day realities of living in poverty in the UK – staying in a women’s refuge whilst pregnant, working in peepshows, having multiple jobs yet relying on food banks and temporary accommodation, finding lifelines in her love for her daughter, community and friendships. Blunt, dignified, and brutally revealing, Skint Estate takes Cash’s personal story and skilfully weaves it into a manifesto for change.
