- What would you like our society to know?
I would love society to understand the huge impact fostering has on a child. I would love them to know that children are not in care because they were 'bold' but rather because of family circumstances that are beyond the child's control

[John Devaney @JDev65]

There’s been a hollowing out of statutory children’s services across UK over last decade - increased need, increased workload, but decrease in budgets. SoS can be part of reshaping practice, but it can’t reshape the system, and some initiatives are papering over cracks

I’d like the church to admit its crimes and cover ups. If it wants to admit it’s ‘sins’, let it off. But that’s a religious, not a civil matter. #Stand4Truth Taoiseach to tell pope that church must admit its sins via @RTENewsNow https://t.co/6ZmFY5VUiO
