“Right now too many care leavers are stuck in survival mode. We deserve better. We deserve the chance to live, not just get by.” Great to be at the Scottish Parliament this afternoon for the launch of @StafScot’s report on a Minimum Income Guarantee pilot for care leavers

Last year, we supported 834 families. Poverty & trauma are the threads that connect them, and we work tirelessly to tackle child poverty. Our CEO joined the Robertson Trust panel to discuss systemic challenges. Stay tuned—our new strategy launches soon!

Breaking cycles of poverty and trauma requires a joint effort across public, third and private sector partners to deliver meaningful social change. This week was a great opportunity for our grant holders to collaborate with each other and share ideas directly with @scotgov 👇
Scot Gov Fairer@ScotGovFairer

At an event in Stirling hosted by @RobertsonTrust, @ScotGovFM and @S_A_Somerville met with grant-holders working to reduce and prevent poverty and set out how the Scottish budget will help in the national mission to eradicate child poverty.
