SMART SOCIAL

When it comes to violence affecting young people it’s clear that without a trauma informed approach that respects the truth about poverty & inequality we are talking about sticking plasters. Lot of heavy lifting involved shifting a paradigm! @HopeCollective2 #SmartSocial

Ipswich staged a wonderful Hope Hack with local youth orgs supported by @ITFCFoundation Ipswich is a town rich in diversity full of wonderful young people. Credit to its football club @IpswichTown & wider community. Ipswich will not succumb to hate it is a town of hope #TeamHope

Talking about tough subjects can be challenging for young people. The young people of Luton who took part in @HopeCollective2 Hope Hack 43 yesterday tackling VAWG did amazingly well. Well done @bedspolice @BedsVEPP @BedsPCC and huge thanks @riofoundation #LegacyOfHope

Lots going on here at @LutonTownCT @LutonTown with @BedsVEPP @bedspolice supported by @riofoundation @natyouthagency @LDN_VRU @VR_Network and lots of local Luton schools and community orgs #LutonHopeHack #LegacyOfHope

Back in the day when Twitter was Twitter and blue ticks earned for positive activity, we arranged for every VRU to have a blue tick coinciding with our youth management group (YMG) announcing a DAY OF HOPE on Damilola Taylor’s heavenly birthday! December 7th #LegacyOfHope

Last week our incredibly passionate Youth management group presented top line findings from 38 Hope Hacks to @DCMS two days later we were in Forest Bank prison with @GM_VRU @UNITYRADIOFM @uservoiceorg @Oasis_UK Navigators @StreetDoctors #PublicHealth #LegacyOfHope

For anyone who never got to read our pilot summary. You really still need to! static1.squarespace.com/static/627e1c0… We said we needed to change the conversation as the conversation needed to change. It still does!! @mahdloyouthzone @OnSideYZ Blast from the past 😊 #ChangingTheConversation

@RunnymedeTrust @sjwalcott @onlinehyphen At Hope hacks all over the UK we have seen young people of all colours, religions & gender come together around the need for a fairer society. On the issue of policing they ask for respect and to be policed by consent. Equally black & white! news.npcc.police.uk/releases/young… #LegacyOfHope

@NCSTrust @MarkGifford @NCS Game changers never leave the game they changed entirely 💙 #TeamHope
