Donald Trump thinks gun violence is something we all need to just "get over."

He is a threat to the safety of our children and communities.

Children and families in Gaza have practically run out of water.

They are now forced to use dirty water from wells, increasing risks of waterborne diseases.

We need an immediate humanitarian pause to ensure unhindered and safe access to children and families in Gaza.

Children and young people don’t just witness domestic abuse, they experience it too.

The Cost of Living crisis is making it harder for a woman to leave her abuser. When we fail to protect mothers, we fail children too.

[Scottish Women's Aid @scotwomensaid]

Domestic abuse doesn't always involve physical violence.

📺Listen to Shona's story to learn more about coercive control and the devastating impact it can have on the women and children experiencing it.

[Scottish Women's Aid @scotwomensaid]

A Scotland without domestic abuse is possible and it is something that we will never stop fighting for.

Our vision is ambitious because women and children in Scotland deserve nothing less.

[Scottish Refugee Council 🧡 @scotrefcouncil]

Devastating to know the UK's illegal migration bill is now set to become law.
It doesn't represent us or the society we want to live in.
Our first thoughts this morning are with those directly affected. Please join us in solidarity with everyone seeking safety and justice

Tayabullah should be alive-every disease he had was curable. ‘Nothing we can do but watch babies die’ a nurse said. At a graveyard nearby, at least half the new graves are children.Evidence everywhere that lives of #Afghanistan’s youngest are being taken. https://t.co/Krlz2QXmmE

[Scottish Women's Aid @scotwomensaid]

The sheer volume of news stories this week about violence against women feels relentless and very upsetting.

If any of this coverage is triggering for you, Scotland's Domestic Abuse and Forced Marriage Helpline is open 24/7 on 0800 027 1234 to offer support.

You're not alone💜

If you have a cost of living crisis story that needs telling - my DMs are open

[Scottish Refugee Council 🧡 @scotrefcouncil]

On this day 71 years ago, world leaders signed the UN Refugee Convention, promising to protect people fleeing war and persecution. The UK gov’s evil Nationality & Borders Act breaks this promise. Not in our name. #AyeWelcomeRefugees

@LorrainHerbison Congratulations Lorraine! Looks like you enjoyed a wonderful day !
