Last night we sent a message to Rishi Sunak - he must support calls for a #CeasefireNOW .

A ceasefire is the only way to protect children and get enough aid into Gaza.

Time is costing lives. There must be a #CeasefireNOW .

Rolling back on net zero climate policies is a betrayal of children's futures ❌

It exposes the Prime Minister’s ambition to create the place 'we all want it to be for our children' as mere lip service.

#ClimateCrisis

Worrying that new oil and gas is becoming the political dividing line. The public across the board are hugely worried about the climate and cost of living crises. Investing in green energy (and green jobs) is how we tackle both. Our kids really deserve better.

Very proud Save the Children UK is joining NCVO's campaign on #FuellingPositiveChange

Every day we see the impacts of the climate crisis on children. For their futures our organisation must be part of not just responding to that crisis, but averting it

“That the UK looks set to break its international climate finance commitments is not only a disappointment, but also a glaring testament to its disregard for global responsibilities.'

- Gwen Hines, Save the Children CEO @SaveCEO_UK

We can name one:

Wimbledon dumping their sponsor Barclays Bank (aka Europe's largest financier of fossil fuels) 🔥

Extremely disappointing to see the UK's global leadership on tackling the climate crisis is crumbling.

Climate anxiety is rising in children in the UK, with 70% worried about the world they'll inherit – this only confirms they are right to be concerned.

.Rishi Sunak as a finance expert – we need all your expertise to identify how we can finance the 2% of GDP we need for People and Planet.🧍➕🌍

👏Good to hear the acknowledgement that poverty and climate change are two sides of the same coin.
Save the Children UK analysis shows that 774 million children are living in poverty and are exposed to high climate risk. Both must be tackled now 💚💷✊

Official stats out today show the UK in 2022 spent more than three times as much of the aid budget on housing refugees in UK (£3,686 m) than FCDO did alleviating poverty in Africa (£1,109m). Refugee costs now swallow 28.9% of total UK aid. gov.uk/government/col…

Great to be with Mothers Rise Up 🌍 and friends for their Mother’s Day concert outside of Lloyd's calling on them to stop insuring fossil fuels 🔥 🔥 🔥 the kids deserve better!

Today we launched our latest brief, ‘We are the most affected’, which contains powerful insights and recommendations from children from 34 countries on how world leaders can tackle the #HungerCrisis . bit.ly/3J9HfHj🧵(1/6)

Children have inherited a crisis that isn't of their making. Banks must stop financing the industry that is fueling this crisis 🔥🔥🔥 proud to work with our friends Make My Money Matter on this ✊

There can be a lot of doom around tackling the climate crisis understandably. But Save the Children UK we have hope that a green and fair future is possible if we act now.

Have a read of how in Marnie Lekutanoy's blog and while you're at it, give her a follow ✊❤️

75% of children want to see the UK gov do more to tackle the #ClimateCrisis .

We're going in the wrong direction.

Why do we scrutinise fiscal events like the #AutumnStatement ?

Because the Government’s choices in these moments have enormous and long-lasting impacts on children both here in the UK and all over the world. 🌍🇬🇧

#COP27 has ended, but the need for action on climate change remains just as great.

We delivered handwritten messages to James Cleverly🇬🇧 from his constituents in Braintree.

Their message was clear: you must do more to protect children’s futures from the #ClimateCrisis .
