The process of transformation for a just&equal world lies in theory& action,which begins with people’s lived reality.The impetus for change will not come from the powerful,it will be generated by oppressed people through critical consciousness &collective action.Freire in Ledwith

Very proud to be part of a movement to advocate for young people’s voices to be heard. We need to ensure authenticity in our words and actions. #thisisyouthwork #coastalsocialaction @BlackpoolPOP @uyacic @iwill_movement

Very interesting listening to @Channel4 Danny Dyer. We explored this in our #IMD23 event What is means to be a man. @uyacic AT et al are influential . Discuss? This is so important to listen to young mens thoughts, if we are to move forward we have to listen @iwill_movement

It’s Friday, Sunday’s coming!! No matter how dark things seem, hold on, Easter Sunday’s coming and there’s hope because there’s resurrection coming with it!

Proud and very privileged to have been asked to speak at the 4 nations IWD event. We are committed to investing in young women across the 4 nations To do this we need a community of support from business to education, health and sport, art and culture across all key themes

Find out what young people, staff and special guests from Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland had to say at our Young Women's Conference in Stranraer yesterday! 📣🫶🗯️ PART 1 #IWD24 #YWN24 #inspireinclusion #youthworkchangeslives

Wow what a weekend! Just wow!

What a fantastic and inspirational line up! 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

@youthworkable @Keir_Starmer Minister of youth would be a start. Asset based approach would be the first layer. Seeing young people as an integral part of our community would be the jam filling with a fantastic community development for the top layer & the cherry on the cake would be full investment! 🙏

.@Keir_Starmer at Youth Sector event tonight - "We will establish a cross-sector taskforce" for addressing issues of crime affecting young people. ..."Not to tinker with the symptoms, but deal with root causes" That's more like it! And a Minister for Youth to boot please.

@GreggsOfficial It’s my birthday in January and everyone just wants to stay in and wish January was over. But i love January and birthdays ! That’s got to be worth a coffee! 😉

The end of the worst month of the year is in sight, so we’re giving away some large coffees (or tea, we won’t judge) to give people a little boost. Tell us why you need one below and we might just slide into your DMs…

This woman for me is a legend. Passionate, angry, damn right she is, frustrated and says it as it is. Thank you for keep raising your voice to keep children’s and young people on the agenda . They matter!
