Today, @cycd.luton , @accmuk and @revivefys15 came together to host an inspiring Women’s Health & Wellbeing event as part of our END the Silence Project, funded by the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Bedfordshire. Over 90 women and girls joined us, alongside dedicated professionals from across Bedfordshire, to create a powerful and safe space where we could speak openly about the issues that truly impact our lives. We explored important and often hidden harms such as domestic abuse, FGM, forced marriage, and honour-based abuse — while also addressing everyday realities including mental health, poverty, parenting, disability, C-sections, smear tests, menopause, cancer screening and more. The event was filled with meaningful activities, engaging discussions, refreshments, and moments of joy as we celebrated women together 🌸 Yasmin from CYCD and Sarah from ACCM (UK) shared a powerful message: “Yes We Can.” This has now become our slogan — a reminder of what we can achieve when we stand together. A heartfelt thank you to our funders, our incredible volunteers, and every woman and girl who attended and made this event so special. #EndTheSilence #WomensHealth #WomensWellbeing #YesWeCan #CommunityVoices EmpoweredWomen BreakingTheSilence TogetherWeRise Bedfordshire WomensSupport Inspiration StrongerTogether CelebrateWomen

Working Together to Safeguard Every Child 💙 On Wednesday 18th March, we stand together across Bedfordshire to recognise National Child Exploitation Awareness Day , a powerful reminder of our shared responsibility to protect children and young people. Every child deserves to feel safe, heard, and supported. At CYCD, through our youth work and our End the Silence project , we work directly with young people amplifying their voices, building trust, and empowering them to speak out. Safeguarding is more than a duty , it’s a commitment. By staying curious, supporting families, and working in partnership, we can: ✨ Prevent exploitation ✨ Disrupt harm ✨ Build safer communities ✨ Create a culture of care Together, we can protect childhood and help every young person thrive. #EndTheSilence #Safeguarding #ChildExploitationAwareness #CYCD #ProtectYoungPeople #StrongerTogether

@BedsPCC We need to take action as soon as possible before it becomes too late.

This is awful and a major safeguarding issue. Access to social media and encrypted messaging platforms for children under 16 should be banned. I have joined PCCs from across the country and across the political spectrum in calling on the government to introduce such a ban. The Australian government has acted. We should follow.

Sweat, Strategy, Art… and a tiny bit of chaos 💥🧠🎨 From throwing punches (the safe kind 🥊) to throwing ideas, Youth Club stays undefeated. Same Hut. Different vibes. Endless laughs. Who’s pulling up next week? 👀🔥 #YouthClub #AfterSchoolEnergy #FromGamesToGains #GoodVibesOnly #CYCD
