This report has, for the first time, got some of this data!
Some of this is shocking: 20% of all kids in secure settings come from only SIX SCHOOLS!
And 5% come from THE SAME SCHOOL!

Jess, sorry to disappoint but Somalians living in London isnโt the reason we have the current Social Housing crisis we are faced with.
Itโs the fact consecutive governments failed to invest in council house building which coincided with them selling off the little council housing stock we did have over the last 30 years.
There are 1.3 million people waiting for social housing including 151,000 homeless kids, despite this fact, last year government only built 700 new social homes and year on year we are knocking down and selling off more homes than we are building. Thatโs where your anger should be directed, not Somalianโs or any other minority group needing a roof over their head for that matter.

Iโm looking forward to taking part in this panel discussion on what youth work means to us, to Oxfordshire, and for the future. A good use of your young trustees (and Oxfordshire Youth has plenty!)
Tonight @stjohnambulance's youth participation team, we've had:
- 2 Cadets sat on national interview panels
- a Regional Youth Forum meeting
- mock interviews organised via #GiveAnHour
- & preparations for our new Young Trustee
...all in 1 day! So proud of everyone involved ๐
I had a brilliant weekend supporting my two Members of Youth Parliament to engage with the sessions, make connections with others, and grow more confident in expressing their views - and not getting time to tweet, as you can tell! #UKYP24
Paid training and work opportunities for young people interested in getting involved in research and policy at @TheCfEY!
Please share this with young people you know - we're especially keen to hear from folk who face barriers to this kind of work๐

Over 150 hours of support have already been pledged in the week since I tweeted, with several same-day matches immediately made.
Best feeling in the world to see this kindness and care ๐
