I spent time with young people from @Drive_Forward hearing about their experiences. I’m more determined than ever to deliver through our Plan for Change the biggest overhaul of children’s social care in a generation, making sure all care leavers get the support they need.

Thank you @LondonAssembly for giving our young people a platform to share their powerful experiences. 🙌 Hearing directly from care-experienced Londoners is key to driving change. Together, we can make London the most care-experienced friendly city in the world! 💪#CareToCareer

Why should care experience be a protected characteristic? Well....children in care are still children. #changeiscoming

Listening to @FatimaWh1tbread 's personal story of overcoming extreme challenges and now fighting to make the care system better is both inspiring and thought provoking. We need proper #systemchange to truly make a difference

Imagine my surprise when attending @10DowningStreet today for the Centre for Social Justice 20 year anniversary event and the press had arrived en masse to catch me going in. The work of @Drive_Forward is spreading fast.

Get ready for July the 4th! Calling a #GeneralElection in style: in the pouring rain, with a catchy tune in the background, a short and poignant announcement. I only missed the sound of thunder

Almost 40% of care-experienced young people aren't in employment/education/training. Gvt needs to do significantly more to enable them to build meaningful lives for themselves and become contributing members of society. They shouldn't need charity but a good "corporate parent"

An important message from our CEO, @anton_babey , regarding Spring #Budget2024. We urge the government to invest in the future of the most vulnerable young people. #CareExperienced young individuals are encountering significant barriers amid the cost-of-living crisis. @GOVUK

As the chancellor just announced in his #SpringBudget, "those who can work, should". What he forgot to add is that those who have career ambitions and motivation must also have the opportunities to achieve them. Where govt fails, orgs like @Drive_Forward step in. #caretocareer
Drive Forward@Drive_Forward

As we celebrate #NationalCareersWeek and approach #InternationalWomensDay, we're highlighting the inspiring career journeys of incredible young care-experienced people that we work with. 🎉 Meet Aqila, one of the 11 dynamic catalysts at @vml_global (formerly Wunderman Thompson).
