I spent the day in Sheffield with a group of practitioners as they roll out their voice of the child project. This is of course serious business, but we still made sure we found the time to try and understand what it feels like from a young person’s perspective! #voiceofthechild

If we want to children to thrive, we have to support the mental health of their parents. Children’s mental health starts with the wellbeing of adults who care for them. Supporting parents IS supporting children.

When debate turns to violence to silence it’s not just alarming, it’s a warning. Dialogue and disagreement are the backbone of decent democracy. Silencing with force is deeply worrying.

A scenic view of cows grazing in a field in Scotland. And yet, the Climate Change Committee have recommended Scotland cut its livestock herds by 27% by 2040 for Net Zero targets. Completely ridiculous.

It’s time to end this ridiculous notion that cows are bad for the planet. It’s the exact opposite.

A humanist is a non-religious person who shapes their own life in the here and now, because they believe it's the only life they have. #thatshumanism

The scientific method is our most reliable tool for understanding nature, explaining the world, and uncovering truths about the universe. For humanists, it not only offers answers – it also sparks profound questions and wonder. Find out in our #Thatshumanism videos narrated by Stephen Fry.

#OnThisDay 1977: Thanks for the Memory - The Viewer's View asked people what they thought about television. This woman was likely approached for a snappy vox pop, but ended up delivering something closer to a dramatic monologue.

To mark the 10th anniversary of For Baby's Sake, we partnered with award-winning filmmaker Joyce Nicholls to tell the powerful story of our journey so far. This short film marks a decade of delivering our ground-breaking programme that works with both parents to break cycles of domestic abuse and give babies the best start in life. Through the voices of our team, and parents who have taken part in For Baby's Sake, we reflect on our impact and look ahead to the future. A huge thank you to those who shared their voices and experiences. 🎬 joycenicholls.com/ 🔗 Learn more: forbabyssake.org.uk/our-10th… #BreakTheCycle
