I wonder how many people are prepared to RT Every Child Leaving Care Matters #ECLCM @ResCareTo21. If it matters then please send the message on Twitter by a simple press of a key. Thanks.

Looks like my personal account’s gone, maybe this one will too as I struggle coming to terms with X. If so thank you for all your support for #ECLCM @ResCareTo21 over many years. I’m still trying & fighting as much as an old geezer can. Direct approach to politicians let’s see Ed.

CYP Now - National care leaver offer urged by MPs well done @helenhayes_ &colleagues but how will this be delivered? Economically it makes good sense given potential income from tax and NI paid by care leavers vs benefits &services used #ECLCM @ResCareTo21.

Good, but how can we ensure that more or a even maybe a majority of people would give a **** about children being pulled into then thrown out of care? Happy to help #ECLCM @ResCareTo21.
In 2024, the number of looked-after children in England hit 83,630 — up 20% since 2014. Too many families aren’t getting the support they need. The recommendations in our report call for a national care offer & better support for care leavers. Read ⬇ .

That’s appalling and typical I fear. So sorry that no one took the time to notice you sufficiently well to understand that you deserved a history of growing up. Every Child Matters, they said. Not enough to take a photograph it seems 😢 shame on us. I’m sorry. #ECLCM.
Interesting video shared by @JimGoddard1 about Local Authority care files. I don't have any pictures of my teenage years because noone cared enough to take any! My care records sent to me in non chronological order & a difficult read due to redactions and professionals opinions.

So very sad and tragic on multiple levels. Condolences to the Grant family and I won’t offend them by making points on LA & Systemic failings #ECLCM

That’s great to hear. You should get one of your team to call @KirkbrideHannah. She actually does place young people disadvantaged by their #careexperience into jobs and education @CareerMattersUK.
One in seven young people in Britain are unemployed or out of education. That’s just not right. So we’re creating thousands of new jobs, training opportunities, and apprenticeships across the country.
