Dr Adam Burley: We don’t seem to recognise that the people we work with, might have an incapacity to play. We can’t expect people to play when they don’t have a relational frame to work from @IPAGlasgow2023

It’s here! A collection of international stories of Play in Hospitals. Full of powerful stories of children’s experiences. So proud of @NickyEverett2, @CathHubbuck, Fraser & all contributors. A project that started during lockdown has been realised! #article31 #playinhospitals

Thank you to @KerryMP and @elliereeves for mentioning CHAS' work supporting children affected by #parentalimprisonment during yesterday's parliamentary debate on Jade's Law - highlighting the dangers of allowing offenders to maintain parental responsibility from within the prison
Yesterday I spoke in this debate and talked about the work @ChildrenHandS is doing with children where a parent is in prison for DV, sexual abuse or murder. Glad to see Labour commit to Jade’s law and the Minister commit to finding me data on number of children affected.

Thank you to @johnbirdswords for discussing #endFridayreleases in @UKHouseofLords debate today. Looking forward to the 2nd reading of Offenders (Day of Release) Bill, ensuring those w/ high resettlement needs due for release on Friday/bank hol are released up to 2 days earlier.

My Daddy’s in prison but I’m putting him here. Ruby, aged 4, wanted her Daddy to join the Family Art Tree. #familyties #childfocused If you’re interested in #volunteering and are child focused, please get in touch and help us support children like Ruby

Children and also those caring for a child with a parent in #prison can at times feel isolated and lonely. It’s important to remember who makes them feel loved and cared for #parentalimprisonment #love #support
