BREAKING: Every 18 year old leaving care in #Wales will be offered £1,600 a month over 2 years under the basic income pilot. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

It's believed to be the highest amount offered on a scheme of its kind *ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD*.

Absolutely over the moon that word has spread about my training and consultancy services.

My diary is filling, so if you’re interested in connecting with lived experience, do pop me a message. Areas I work in include Language, Transitions, Identity and Participation.

11 years ago I was living in an unregulated placement. I couldn't have felt more invisible or unheard - which is why I'm overwhelmed & still in disbelief that my journal article on the subject has just been published in Practice: Social Work in Action.

Just got my graduation booking information though

£20 a guest
At least £45 to hire a gown

Even after finishing University it’s completely inaccessible to anybody who comes from anything other than a privileged life.
