Violence on our streets is a tragedy that tears lives apart. That's why I visited King's College Hospital to learn about Redthread's vital work and meet the team. Putting youth workers directly in A&E departments is saving lives.

Behind the mic with @Catch22’s Youth2Adulthood (Y2A) Mentoring Service in Newham 👊 We spent the day recording for National Prison Radio, speaking to young people about the reality of leaving custody, the support they’ve received, and the steps they’re taking to move forward 🚀

Delighted to attend the launch of the ‘In Their Own Words’ report and to hear from young care leavers about their experiences. Keen to hear the challenges that young care leavers face and what can be done to help. Well done to @ypbmf and @nlcbf for coordinating today’s event.

Great piece on @itvnews this evening covering the @nlcbf cost of living report 👇 which highlights the impact on care leavers. Good to have the support of the @ChildrensComm in our call for the Universal Credit rate to be extended to care leavers up to the age of 25.

In their new report, #SurvivalIsNotEasy, released today, our colleagues at @NLCBF have showcased the scale of the challenges that care experienced people are currently facing. It is clear that change is needed which is why, tonight, we are sharing some of their findings.
