New blog!

[Barnardo's Innovation Lab @barnardoslab]

In our latest blog we reflect on how we used illustrations, animations, music and art to engage young people in #codesign around #exploitation in East Riding. Check it out: https://t.co/bBmt3m5sIP

*Job Alert* Enthusiastic engagement worker needed to co-ordinate and facilitate the involvement of children, young people and families in our partnership with East Riding Council. It's a fab team working to prevent exploitation #youthvoice #systemschange https://t.co/kKOGl2bEdC

Feeling proud of this event - moving a project from insights to solutions is one of my favourite parts of my role as a service designer.

[Barnardo's Innovation Lab @barnardoslab]

We thoroughly enjoyed running a #codesign workshop this week as part of our strategic partnership with @East_Riding on child exploitation and #systemschange. Thank you to the 42 professionals for your creativity and passion. Next stop - parents/guardians and young people.

Lest we need reminding, here’s a cutting from The Daily Mail in 1938.

Buzzing after a wonderful morning gathering thoughts from young people. Climate anxiety is real and as adult's, we need to think carefully about how we support young people to cope. Much seems to be about how we communicate about the climate crisis in the first place.

[Barnardo's Innovation Lab @barnardoslab]

81% young people feel children aren't listened to on climate change (UNICEF). It's impacting their mental health. Insightful day yesterday at @BucksCouncil Youth Summit discussing this on a ‘debate wall’. Such thoughtful contributions + drawings #climateanxiety #youthvoice

[Barnardo's Innovation Lab @barnardoslab]

The project is a great example of how local authority and third sector organisations can join forces to drive change. Check out this video to hear reflections from the Residential Reboot team and the young co-designers. https://t.co/6QrFw2NCw5

[Natasha Morgan (she/her) @NatashaMorgan_]

It's been an absolute pleasure working on this project and a great learning experience.

[Barnardo's Innovation Lab @barnardoslab]

Residential care needs a reboot! Our latest blog shares what we learnt from co-designing the future of children’s residential care with @Essex_CC and a fab group of young people. https://t.co/1hVKLkAAbs

@unobusupdate are there any plans for digital update screens at bus stops?

I love being part of @drum_works. Never thought a novice like me would get to play with such an amazing group of people at the #AvatarTheWayOfWater premiere!

[Alex Ritman @alexritman]

In perhaps a movie first, the Avatar: The Way of Water post premiere afterparty at London’s Natural History Museum features steel drums AND a blue whale skeleton

Any guesses which is my spirit monster?

[Barnardo's Innovation Lab @barnardoslab]

Never underestimate the power of serious play. Today some of the @barnardoslab team created our spirit monsters! A great way to get to know new colleagues and spot how our strengths can compliment and support each other. #teambuilding #futureofwork #designthinking

@unoherts How come so many cancellations on the 653?

Looking for a new challenge? This is a great opportunity to join a wonderful team @theQCommunity as my maternity cover - working on #QLabs with an inspiring team, partners, and members of the community.

Interesting and candid listening on @BBCRadio4 last night about the challenges faced by adoptive parents, and how the social care system often fails to support them. https://t.co/PUewsRhYjF #adoption #systemsthinking

This is fascinating reading. Feels extra relevant having just got back from a long weekend in Jerusalem where Jewish, as well as Christian and Muslim history feels so tangible.

[Dr Adam Rutherford @AdamRutherford]

The deaths of 17 medieval Jews: An incredible new genetics paper has just dropped: The earliest Jewish genomes and the story of where they are from and how they died is incredibly important, and central to the origin of contemporary antisemitic conspiracy hatred. 🧵
