There are welcome policies in today’s #Budget, but these are tweaks rather than the systemic change that is needed. Babies, children and young people can’t wait. Read the Children’s Charities Coalition statement 👇childrenatthetable.org.uk/au… #ChildrenAtTheTable
ALT "Piecemeal, sticking plaster approaches to funding have got us to the crisis point we now find ourselves in. Only strategic investment in prevention and early intervention can tackle the root causes of the high levels of children entering care and the epidemic of poor mental health amongst children and young people." the Children's Charities Coalition.

Imagine a safe space, where young people can walk in and get support without having long wait times. Today, we’re launching Time for young people, Newham – our new emotional wellbeing support space, offering free help for children and young people, whatever’s on their mind.

Amazing for @LizTwistMP to visit our Gateside Time service & meet the fantastic @childrensociety team, children & partners at BillQuayFarm to discuss how this innovative open access service is reversing the decline in children’s well being #trustedadult #wellbeing #earlysupport

Groomed by criminal groups, many teenagers are coerced into carrying drugs far from home. They’re treated like criminals, but are trapped and feel they have no choice.
Teenagers are children too. Don't let them face life alone. 👉 ow.ly/yu9C50Sw02l

No matter the outcome today, we need the next Government to make childhoods a national priority. 📢 Along with over 30,000 others, we're asking the next Prime Minister and Chancellor to be a champion for children. Will you join us? act.childrenssociety.org.uk/…

Navigating the cost of living crisis. The challenges for charities to raise income at a time the need for our services has never been greater. Life is just to hard for children, young people & families. @childrensociety #CIOFFC @CIOFtweets #fundraising #socialimpact #youthimpact

Some children walk around with the weight of the world on their shoulders.
That’s why we are launching ‘The Heaviest Backpack’ to show that these burdens can weigh children down and follow them everywhere.

"Without question you can't disconnect the £2.5 billion government has taken out of youth work over the last decade with all the challenges we're seeing in children's lives right now."
