A Universal Basic Income or citizen\u2019s income is a system in which everyone in society, poor to rich, gets a regular payment, replacing means-testing of welfare and benefits.
Sheffield is an ideal test-bed for UBI . It is a divided city, with 25% of children living under the poverty line and a difference in life expectancy of up to ten years between the south-west and north-east of the city. Sheffield has some of the wealthiest areas in the country and some of the most deprived areas in Europe.
The UBI Lab - Sheffield pilot is designed to investigate whether a Universal Basic Income is the means to provide welfare state reform.
