I knew it would be special & I’m glad I took my tissues 😭. Sir Mark is right - you *can* join a @the_halle choir (not tomorrow though - weekend off!). HACC meets Sundays, 7.30pm, St. Peter’s, Ancoats. No audition, just fab singing with wonderful people! https://t.co/8rduRF63F7

Saw the brilliant @ManchesterVocal last night for the first time. Gorgeous mix of incredible voices. Spine tingly quiet moments and then they just blew the roof off!! Go if you can in the new year. ❤️

Devastating @UNICEF league table on changes in child poverty over 7+ years up to 2021: UK in the bottom spot Report: https://t.co/cbMIKYpSZ4

Truly shocking stats from our friends @UNICEF_uk It’s appalling that the UK has seen the biggest rise in child poverty in the OECD/EU. We need fighting child poverty to be a national mission, and we need a Child Poverty Act to enshrine that commitment in law. This has to change
The UK has seen the biggest increase in child poverty of all the OECD/EU countries rated in UNICEF’s latest Report Card published today. Rates of child poverty in the UK have increased by more than 20% (half a million children). #foreverychild

@Innovation_Unit @heather_sandy 3. I specialise in scaling innovation @Innovation_Unit And I always come away thinking about how we get better at sharing more of what is working. Great presentation from @hantsconnect on Gamily Help. One to ponder for the new year. #NCASC23

2. We also think a lot about the power of sharing what isn’t working @Innovation_Unit . @heather_sandy Alison Hinds and Paul Dempsey talking openly and honestly about Pathfinder challenges was great. Was really well received!

Thoughts from day 1 @ncasc23 1. @Innovation_Unit we advocate for the power of stories. Thanks to @yourdcsnotts and Nigel Minns. I’ll keep the UASC children you spoke about in my mind in my work. As well as the system challenges.

JP: The prevalence of mental health distress amongst children and young people has never been higher and yet, despite investment, waiting lists for both assessment and treatments continue to grow resulting in more and more children tipping into crisis #ncasc23
