A few of our favourite moments from the inaugural MACC Academy Awards Dinner which took place at the Howard Suite- Headingley Stadium this week. It is always a privilege to champion young people as they grow and excel, and to raise the bar for opportunity and excellence.

It was very inspiring to visit the @TasifKboxer Community Boxing Academy today accompanied by my DL @MWIPproject. They are doing such great work with boys and girls and young adults, providing vital physical and life skills and role models for the young people.

Grateful for your support as always @saffysaffron. Visibility of the context and cultural dynamics these women face is very important, if they are to receive timely and appropriate support. Yasmin was incredibly powerful and forthright in her delivery, very proud of her.

We screened the Inside Out- MWIP film @LeedsTrinity as part of @unlockedgrads training programme for Prison Officers on Bank Holiday Monday. The discussions on cultural competence and awareness prompted deep reflection and there was a real sense of curiosity and learning.

Bishop @toby_howarth and I were incredibly proud of the contributions young people from across all faiths made to the #YorkshireDay Service in Ilkley today. They spoke with great humility about their faith values, service to communities & their very proud Yorkshire roots.
