@elonmusk Us Brits do love a bit of fiction ...
J.k. Rowling - children with magic powers
J.R.R Tolkien - hobbits, wizards, talking trees
C.S Lewis - magic wardrobes, talking lions and ice queens
J.D Vance - Europeans BEG for America to rule the continent

Our foster carers Jason and his husband Charlie share the joy of fostering and encourages people who have space in their heart and life to consider fostering. 🏳️‍🌈

We welcome foster carers from all backgrounds and sexual orientation.

Shame this has happened, not only for the employees but also the inspirational young people who can debate the socks off any adult. We will continue to support Wiltshire's Members of Youth Parliament in their roles to make a difference both locally and nationally.

[British Youth Council @bycLIVE]

The British Youth Council is sad to announce its permanent closure after more than 75 years of championing the voices of young people.

Positive relationships, a safety net, someone being in your corner. The difference between fighting the odds or not. https://t.co/5gpX6MwjZq

@JohnnyMercerUK @carolvorders @FredThomasUK Pretty disappointing tweet to stumble across. As the cross government lead for care leavers I expect better from you! To describe someone's life like that is pretty grotesque especially when many care leavers I advocate for would describe their lives as shit and lonely #BeBetter

My friend and colleague @CameronDraisey shares the word on how foster children can feel at Christmas. Please spare a thought about what children in care may be feeling on the big day.

@MichaelGGraham_ @cypnow Thank you Micheal it's been an exciting journey so far! we are chuffed to bits to be shortlisted. I think it definitely helps that participation and voice is at the top of all agenda's at @wiltscouncil.

[Joe Sutton @JoeSutton1992]

Wow, what a journey! The team that I manage and set up only 2 years ago is shortlisted for the @cypnow Social Care Team of the Year Award. The team is so special as it is exclusively made up of #CareExperienced adults. A very proud moment for myself and the team! @wiltscouncil
