We’ve had a brilliant couple of days away in #Manchester as a team 💚. Spending time together to re-connect as human beings & update our team objectives and work plan — focusing on how we support, guide & enable the charity to deliver on its 3-year strategy. Onwards & upwards 🙌

Within our extensive archives 📖 we hold some of our earliest admission records from the early 1800s. Each record includes not only why the child was coming into care BUT also a statement from the child in their own words about their circumstances. 2/.

Today marks Dr Barnardo's birthday! 🎂. There's something quite poignant about Dr Barnardo’s birthday falling in #CoProWeek this year - the charity has always championed children being heard & sharing their lived experience, & we have the hard evidence to prove it! 1/

#YouthVoice at the 💚 of the @niassembly - we love to see it! 👏.
This is #RefugeeWeek & our Young Syrian Voices Group visited Stormont today to speak to MLAs about their experience arriving in NI. They want to see changes to the systems here to make that transition easier for newly arriving families in the future. We're very proud of them 💚

'Nothing about us, without us', to coin the phrase!. Centring, listening and responding to the voices and experiences of children and young people should always be central to decision-making - that's why it's one of our @barnardos foundations 🙌.
Clarity on importance of real engagement and true partnerships with children and young people from this panel 👏Really need to know what good health means to them to be able to improve services. Some get practical advice too! @rukshanakapasi @barnardos #NHSConfedExpo

Really interesting discussion at @SLGInvolvement today about ‘breadth vs depth’ in working with those with lived experience, and how this looks/feels in different organisations — what works & what doesn’t.
Looking forward to joining colleagues at @SLGInvolvement today — always a great space to learn, share and problem-solve together.

Hearing about the self-assessment process for @BarnardosScot services to evidence how they are embedding #UNCRC into their work — on a scale of emerging 🌱 to fully developed 🌳. Example here for #Article12 — of course applying the #LundyModel 👇
