@dez_holmes All is well. We’re launching our CYP participation strategy (professional version) soon. Thanks for all your ideas. Young people: “we want a video, not a document” so looking forward to supporting our youth parliament media lead. Let’s talk impact at some point.

I got a @dez_holmes booster at the “Engaging with parents of children at risk of violence” YEF conference today. Thanks for your hope, care, anger, realism and another dash of hope. We’re on the right track. X

@dez_holmes @EloiseBellaDay Thanks Dez and Eloise. I’m interested in both please - engaging children, young people and carers in meaningful change with a focus on impact, making sure participants feel appreciated and they receive feedback the differences they’ve made.

🎆At our #brentdslconference today, school DSLs and social workers spent an hour in reflective case discussions. Relationship building, respect across disciplines, 100% child focussed and incredibly powerful. Let’s do this termly! 🎇 @brentsafegrdng @nigelchapman2 @alanjhart

@alanjhart With changes to KCSIE 2023 our #BrentDSLnetwork conference in July will be right on point!

In relation to the emphasis on filtering and monitoring systems and standards… the Designated Safeguarding Lead has chief responsibility for this within their school/college.

Very excited thinking about supporting children in care and care leavers attend future relaxed performances… @nigelchapman2 #LoveENO

Marvellous afternoon at the the relaxed performance of The Yeoman of the Guard. Beautifully inclusive - everyone was so welcoming and kind. Never thought a near 4 year old would be so captivated by opera. Thank you! ❤️ #LoveENO

@tasha_a7 @JohnLewisRetail I cried too… 🥲. So powerful to see the care and devotion of foster careers recognised.
