Young people are only seeing the glamourised side of gangs & County Lines, without knowing the realities of criminal activity. It's so important to share the realities and consequences, and create a counter narrative for young people to engage with. #KeepEveryChildSafe #SOSplus

This is an astonishing figure, we also know since the pandemic began 2.3 million UK children have lived in #foodinsecure homes. We need to ensure our children are fed, nourished and able to engage in education, today and every day. Full research: gov.uk/government/statistics…

None of us should have to go hungry yet, even before the pandemic struck, 4️⃣3️⃣%* of households receiving #UniversalCredit experienced #FoodInsecurity. As we rebuild, we must look to the underlying causes of poverty if we are to tackle this injustice.
