From N.Ireland based in London, passionate about social justice and building a society for all children. CEO @childrensociety School Governor. Views mine 🏳️🌈
The #GoodChildhoodReport 2025 is here and one thing is clear: teenagers are under pressure from all angles.
Children’s wellbeing is still in decline. We cannot allow this to be our normal, it is time for change.

@jamesmurray_ldn Congratulations on your new appointment James, it would be fantastic to meet to talk about children’s mental health and wellbeing, and our work @childrensociety
It was a privilege to be at Costello School in Basingstoke today to speak to their whole Year 9 about my career journey, the work of @childrensociety and offer some advice - as part of @futuresforalluk

I've emailed my MP urging them to contact the Minister for Education to introduce a National Wellbeing Measure for children. With the right insight, we can make better decisions for children and young people. Will you do the same? https://t.co/5j9prUIEiU
@SW_Help have you any idea when I can get to fleet? No one in Waterloo knows - the board said the 1942 was delayed to 2004, now it just says delayed on the board. Zero communication from a human being. This really isn’t an acceptable service especially after the chaos last night
Another day, and another day of chaos on @SW_Help - trains late, trains cancelled, and we are expected to pay for this “service”. We’ve got a computer talking to us, no real people communicating any sense of apology for the delays people face
Great work from our pals @YLvsCancer who’ve campaigned for this. Families supporting a child with cancer is hard enough without stressing about the travel costs to treatment. This is great news for many families, thanks @wesstreeting for making it happen

Great to welcome @ukhomeoffice Minister Lord Hanson to @childrensociety to meet colleagues working to disrupt young people from being financially exploited, share our youth voice report and reflect how government can do more to safeguard young people from this type of harm.

4 million children in poverty is a political choice.
In this clip from the Manifesto for Hope podcast, @childrensociety CEO @markrusselluk & @SteveChalke explore how our political system is salami-slicing children’s lives.
