It’s been a busy week so really enjoyed taking time today for a big walk through the Hampshire countryside. So good to take time to enjoy nature and the signs of spring! Really lovely to have sunshine too!!!

Carers and Young Carers are heroes and it feels time and time again that government neither appreciate how hard life is or behave with cold heartlessness as this woman has found out. This has to change

Superb from ⁦Josh Halliday⁩

Never believe your vote doesn’t count or “they’re all the same”; we’ll be facing profound choices about the path we set for the future - it’s vital that young people have a voice

Let’s encourage more young people to vote this year than ever before

#GiveAnX - spread the word

Love this new look for RSPCA (England & Wales) superb work Chris Sherwood

Absolutely LOVE this!!!

Let’s get every young person registered to vote!!!!

Let’s all #GiveAnX

I’m so proud of The Children's Society retail team. 104 shops raising millions to support our work changing children’s lives. I loved visiting 6 shops in the Midlands to say thank you to our staff and volunteers. I’m inspired by the amazing people who are part of our TeamTCS family!

To everyone marking the holy time of #Ramadan I want to wish everyone a blessed #Eid2024 ! I hope this is time of love joy and happiness #EidMubarak

The #CassReview should mark a watershed moment - for my full response on behalf of The Children's Society read below 👇

I’m so grateful to my friend Peter Wanless for all he’s done to champion children. He’s been an outstanding leader @nspcc and everyone at Team The Children's Society send our grateful thanks and huge respect! (Maybe I need to start wearing brighter shirts!)

Such a pleasure to join hayleyguest and all the staff from across Manor Multi Academy Trust to give the closing keynote at their conference and share The Children's Society passion to build a society for all children! I was overwhelmed by their enthusiasm and their kind cheque for £2000!

Splendid selection of free online learning events from The Children's Society Prevention team - focused on exploitation and safeguarding young people

Massive thanks to you all! I've smashed my fundraising target! But I still want to raise even more money for the awesome The Children's Society

I’m grateful to David Cameron and Rt Hon Andrew Mitchell MP ensuring that the UK stands up for the human rights of LGBTQ+ people. The Ugandan law is an outrage and my heart goes out to all those living in fear there

Over four million children live in poverty and one of the quickest ways to lift hundreds of thousands out of poverty would be to scrap this cruel Sibling Tax because #AllKidsCount

Proud to add The Children's Society voice to our friends End Child Poverty in fighting for this change

Tomorrow is an unhappy birthday, 7 years since the start of the two-child limit to benefit payments

We love birthdays 🎂 but this isn't one to celebrate 😔 today we are taking this message to Department for Work and Pensions

All political parties must pledge to scrap this Sibling Tax

#AllKidsCount

Really grateful to UK Youth Parliament Youth Select Committee for this excellent report into the impact of the Cost of Living crisis on young people. Their recommendations are wise and I hope the government read carefully

Grateful to British Youth Council for supporting these young people

Fining people for being homeless rather than actually change housing policy so people don’t end up homeless sounds like an #AprilFoolsDay joke, but sadly not. Homelessness is a national scandal we should commit to eradicate not criminalise. Well said Polly Neate

So lovely to spend the Easter weekend in beautiful Cornwall and see signs of spring and new life everywhere!

So good to hear from Include: Young Carers colleagues - spotlight on young carers in our Trustee meeting yesterday.

Sharing the work of our lean team making big waves for young carers & drumming up interest in the event of the year #YoungCarersFestival24
#YCF24

Make a pledge today to #LookCloser to help protect a child or young person from exploitation. Whether you work with young people or may come across them in your line of work, you could help by knowing the signs and reporting it. More: orlo.uk/zZgfV The Children's Society
