A huge thank you to @ScotParl staff and MSPs for welcoming us last week. We loved showcasing how data-driven insight can drive whole-household solutions to tackle poverty. Excited to deepen collaboration in communities that need it most! #SocialImpact #povertysolutions

Thanks to @reformscotland for the platform. Too many people experience services as a maze of conditions, referrals and missed opportunities. Poverty isn’t inevitable - but we have to design systems that help people out, not hold them in. Grateful to share our perspective.

My @heraldscotland column on the new earlier release legislation: a step in the right direction, but so much more to be done to reverse the damage of sentence inflation, and to make meaningful rehabilitation possible. heraldscotland.com/politics/viewp…

Great to host @johnadgrady MP to our Templeton Hub last week. Through initiatives like Relational Mentoring, we're tackling youth justice, sustaining apprenticeships, preventing evictions, and breaking barriers to employment. Thank you, John, for your support building communities

Fuel fear is complex. Our Mentoring approach helps thousands of households change their relationship with energy —emotionally and financially. The energy sector is intricately linked to wider societal issues. Along with providers we are are uniquely ready to drive change.

@Scotonomics1 @JohnSwinney @ScotGovFM @RoyalSocEd @scotgov Agree re CP focus. Great to see . My contention is not seeing it in action. @JohnSwinney strong belief in way forward (which I welcome) needs to be put into action and quick .We need more ‘doing’ . SG bods have retrenched to acute risk averse behaviours ,contradicting ambition

@sirius_d @JohnSwinney @ScotGovFM @RoyalSocEd @scotgov Agree Sean it was a very good summary of his ideas. It focussed on what @scotgov can do to aid progress and thankfully moved away from the idea that it has the powers to 'significantly increase (GDP) growth'. Focus on Child Poverty was strong too.

We spoke to three people who are struggling to pay their energy bills. Millions across the UK share these struggles of being in fuel debt and feeling afraid to receive an energy bill: buff.ly/4g75cga #FuelPovertyAwarenessDay

Our Breaking Down Barriers to Employment report looks at economic inactivity, with strategies that address root causes, not symptoms. Our Connect service strengthens JCP engagement & health links, while Relational Mentoring drives real impact. We’re ready to make the glue stick
Department for Work and Pensions@DWPgovuk

Our Get Britain Working plan will bring in three major changes: - Overhauling Jobcentres so they become a genuine jobs and careers service - Introducing a new Youth Guarantee so every young person is earning or learning - Giving local areas more powers to tackle inactivity
