There are millions of children in the UK experiencing poverty; a record number in care; a mental health epidemic; rising ill health amongst our most vulnerable young people. We are calling for a Children First Government. Will you join the campaign?

Urgent change is needed to ensure young people's health and development is the best it can be. Oral health is a key to this. Paula Waterhouse of the British Society of Paediatric Dentistry provides a powerful endword to the latest @ChildoftheNort1 report: https://t.co/3a0JaSIcHf

The findings aren’t surprising. The solutions are out there. We need radical leadership, collaborations and partnerships to make this work for our children and young people. https://t.co/zqof8VnYkZ We also need a trained workforce that has the skills to work across our system.
