Great to see @DavidLammy sharing this important message. Our work with @homecomingproj is playing an important role in highlighting this global issue.

Making sure every child grows up in a safe and loving family environment is personal to me.

It is great to be working with @BarryKeoghan on reforming children’s social care around the world.

25. Leading with a Limp by Dan B. Allender.

A challenging read about embracing our weaknesses in leadership, vulnerability and trust.

Also an interesting final chapter about the leadership types; King, Priest and Prophet.

In 2022 I shared my goal to read 25 books in the year on here. It was:

- a beautiful way to start conversations
- a useful tool for accountability
- a grand source of recommendations
- a way to remember what I read

So, I’m doing it again in 2024!

Recommendations welcome 🙏

@ChrisMcDougall @alexbellos @wanderingsiz @kuangrf 24. Redwall by Brian Jacques.

Love a classic at Christmas 🐭🎄

[Matt Jones @MatthewAJones]

I probably didn’t enjoy this as much as Babel by @kuangrf - but I think that’s personal preference for fantasy rather than overall quality.

@ChrisMcDougall @alexbellos @wanderingsiz 23. Yellowface by @kuangrf

A fun, modern and smart book with a neat concept.

Listened to this in about 3 chunks with some long work journeys and it was good company.

Great to hear @Keir_Starmer mention care leavers in his speech and set out his commitment to tackle homelessness - 1 in 3 face homelessness within 2 years of leaving care so this is a really welcome step.

[Sam Lomas @slomas915]

Looking forward to attending this at the Labour Party Conf. At @SafeFamiliesUK we continue to advocate for the strengthening of early intervention services.
