"Only 1 in 5 children feel listened to by those who run the country...but they have faith that if they were listened to, politicians could and would transform their lives" Great to speak at #APPGChildren sharing #TheBigAmbition with my Youth Ambassadors @ncbtweets

This sign is on the drive of the school I was working with today. I was thinking: what if every school had such a sign? @UpstartScot @GiveTimeScot

A Danish kindergarten. Playing outdoors, even in mud, is part of each day. It's essential for children's sensory development. It's essential for children to be children. For the rest, grown-ups invented the washing machine.

#GoodMorning, everyone

[Children's Commissioner for England @ChildrensComm]

This coming year will be critical for children's rights, with an election, a new government & a new mandate to improve children's lives. I've set out my priorities for the upcoming year - and my final three years as @ChildrensComm https://t.co/0zgKCuvqBu

[Bearwood Action @BearwoodAction]

Come and ‘Spring Into Action’ with us at our community fun day and fundraiser at Thimblemill library. Sunday 14 April 2.30-5pm.
Entry is free and pay what you can/make a donation for activities and refreshments.

[Children's Commissioner for England @ChildrensComm]

Children are passionate about making change - but only 1 in 5 feel like those in power listen. I'm taking their voices, views & experiences to politicians & policymakers with this challenge: listen, and act on what children are telling you. #TheBigAmbition https://t.co/oJ5Vqr5aDO

[Student Voice - St Michael’s 🌈 @SStmichaels]

Will YOU be part of the solution?
The mental health crisis has now become a pandemic and it is time to treat it as such. Early intervention is crucial and we cannot do this alone!

Please share, tag and spread the word.

Our mental health matters too 💛

Imagine a school where your mental health is just as important as your grades. That’s worth striving for.

This #internationalwomensday we asked our GirlsCan collective 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩? 😨

Some of the answers really opened our eyes to just how many things these young girls have to worry about at such a young age 😢
