@miriam_cates The tories introduced the 2 child benefit cap putting thousands of families into poverty. You can’t encourage people to have kids & then penalise them for it. Why do we have over 300 baby banks supporting families in the UK - & before anyone says it - some ARE working families!!!

[Cat Ross @catross88]

@olivercoppard Life doesn’t begin and end with Alevels as much as we want kids to achieve their potential. Disappointing results don’t define you. I failed my Alevels and I’m pretty pleased with my career and my achievements 😊

Some of the BBUK HQ are joining this with our sheffield colleagues. Do sponsor us if you can!

@miriam_cates Child poverty is one of the biggest societal issues that needs addressing right now. Always and open invitation to visit Baby Basics and see what we do and what we want to do. It shouldn’t be that 1 in ten babies born in sheffield need us to provide a safe space to sleep!
