This #NationalSiblingsDay falls in the same week as the 7 year anniversary of the two-child limit to benefit payments. To mark the occassion take a look to see if it has had the effect the government aimed for in our latest blog: https://t.co/iZylM2uOpb

Your 'to-do' list may be well-organised but does every item on it belong there? Maybe some things need delegated or passed back to the original owner? Lists are a powerful task management tool but they can become a source of stress – make sure yours isn't. #StressAwarenessMonth

ICYMI we launched a new film during #ChallengePoverty week. It is a powerful exploration of poverty in Scotland and part we all have to play in ending it. Take 5 minutes to watch and see how you can get involved... https://t.co/afreeFJaEg

We were delighted to host @churchmoderator at our Highland Perthshire Debt Centre recently. We talked about the impact poverty is having on people in rural communities and how the church can make a difference. When we work together we can #EndPoverty in Scotland.

We are saying goodbye to @charis_scott as she moves onto a new role. Charis has led so much of our work in the public square, on social media and equipping and inspiring others to engage in campaigning and advocacy. We have all loved working with her and wish her every success.

🚨#ChallengePoverty Week Day 4!

👇It's unjust that lack of cash stops people getting on board. We can build a Scotland where everyone can get to where they need to go.

'When working in harmony with justice, compassion ensures that we campaign for the right changes. It enables us to learn from people with experience of poverty in a way that is safe and empowering as we co-design solutions.' #ChallengePoverty https://t.co/Zg2I0HIV3r

[CAP Scotland @CAPscot]

'Feeling, and acting, with compassion forces us to view the world beyond our own experience of it. It can change our perspective and compel us to act.'
