I’ve just been on the news! 🗞️

It was brilliant to see @bbcemt visit Sutton, a town that is so often ignored.

I talked about @UKYP and why young people’s voices matter, and supporting their mental health needs to be a priority.

Take a watch in the next thread!🍿

[UK Parliament @UKParliament]

Tomorrow, young people take over the Commons Chamber for Youth Parliament.

Watch live from 11am.

@TomCraddockMYP @StaffsYU @UKYP Great work Tom and the @staffscvys @UKYP team!

❓Heard of #BlueMonday?

It's not the "saddest day of the year" – it’s just clever marketing from 2005.

🧠 Mental health is complex. Feeling low can happen anytime, and that’s okay. Let’s support each other 365 days a year.

RT to bust the myth! 💛 #MythBusting

@AnitaOkunde @OxfordUnion Huge congratulations @AnitaOkunde!!!

[Callum Parr @CallumParrUK]

Really pleased to see this @MayorEastMids, it’s great to see more investment for young people within our region!

[Mayor of the East Midlands, Claire Ward @MayorEastMids]

Delighted that the East Midlands will be leading the way as one of the Youth Guarantee trailblazer regions — where every young person can realise their full potential and contribute to Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire's growing economy and exciting future!

Today is #WorldChildrensDay - an opportunity to reflect on the important ideas and contributions children make to society.

Only 1 in 5 told #TheBigAmbition they feel adults in power listen to them. Their voices are powerful - they need to be heard.

[Callum Parr @CallumParrUK]

Could you lead our Programmes and Education work at @ALBOSUK leading the new projects we’re working on!

[Centre for Mental Health @CentreforMH]

People with mental health difficulties have a right to a fairer chance in life.

We need the Govt to address the root causes of poor mental health, like poverty, racism, poor housing & inequality, and dramatically improve mental health support.

The cost of inaction is too high.

[Natalie Fahy @nat_fahy]

I've been using Nottingham station regularly for 14 years now and the closure of the footbridge to stop fare evaders is maybe the worst decision @EastMidRailway has ever made. What a faff to get from train to tram.

[Callum Parr @CallumParrUK]

@SirBillSpeaker Don’t worry bill did get gravy in the end!

[Angie McCormack @angiemc_rys]

Powerful, encouraging words in the closing ceremony. What a fab weekend it has been! #UKYP24 @LeighNYA @natyouthagency @RochdaleYouthie

[Callum Parr @CallumParrUK]

@SirBillSpeaker @angiemc_rys Don’t forget to thank your SG parents Bill!!

[Callum Parr @CallumParrUK]

@jackfifield @northernassist Trains accross England have been awful today, and over the weekend.

[Callum Parr @CallumParrUK]

AS If all the #traindelays (7+ hours) and cancellations today haven’t been enough for me - I’ve come home to be greeted by the biggest spider I’ve ever seen in my life.

[Callum Parr @CallumParrUK]

@CrossCountryUK my trains on Friday were cancelled from Oxford (14.39) to Coventry. How do I get compensation for this?

[Callum Parr @CallumParrUK]

@CrossCountryUK No worries - do you know what the unreserved coach will be?

[Callum Parr @CallumParrUK]

@CrossCountryUK can I get 3 seat reservations for the 17.03 departing Bham New Street for Edinburgh. One to Derby, one to Newcastle and one to Edinburgh Waverley. Preferably a table seat 🥺

[Callum Parr @CallumParrUK]

@CrossCountryUK Yes!

[Sir Bill Speaker @SirBillSpeaker]

We’re so back! And ready for an action packed #UKYP24 Annual Conference.
