Dear Zack @ZackPolanski It was good to see you taking part in the @mylifemysay event at the weekend. For too long, the youth "voice" in this country has gone unheard. For several decades their voices have been asked for but then disrespected by the adult establishment who never act on what has being said. What has been desperately requested. Mental health service provision and access to safe spaces and trusted adult youth work mentors etc The Hope Collective @HopeCollective2 believes this Government is truly committed at Minister level to undoing 15 years of destruction to the youth sector Personally, i think the anti immigration rhetoric dominating political discourse is futher disenfranchising hundreds of thousands of young people living in challenging circumstances through poverty and inequalities All colours and creeds. All genders and religions. Poverty does not discriminate the way wealth does! garytrowsdale.com/2025/03/23/leg… Take a read if you see this post. Hope is the most important ingredient in a public health approach to safeguarding vulnerable young people. As my mate Sian @sianberry Knows well 🫡 #LegacyOfHope

The building on the progress is great. Derailing it through defunding the VRU network across the UK maybe not so much. Honest candid conversations needed as to much been going on behind closed doors, not necessarily in best interests of progress @karynmccluskey @JohnCarnochan legacy deserved better #PublicHealth

Dear Abhinay @AbhinayMuthoo, As I've been explaining. The constant churn of interventions (interventionitus) as Keir @KeirIrwinRogers terms it!! Conveyor belt to nowhere. An entire sector running to stand still where change is concerned while the fundamentals are broken. A billion or so reports talk about the youth mental health crisis but the establishment fails to take it seriously As a 15 year old girl in Liverpool once remarked at a hope hack "Do people not think poor mental health is involved with virtually every stabbing incident where young people concerned"? "They call for increased stop & search" "How about increasing mental health services"? The youth violence industry leadership does not like me very much as you know. I can't pretend it makes getting things done any easier but i also can't pretend it doesn't spur me on to keep going either.. 5 years on from @YouthViolenceUK it's worth noting that while our top line recommendations were adopted in double quick time none of our other recommendations including mental health support services were even given a second glance Do we just roll over and let the interventionitus cartel have free rein or do we go again? One last dance? @AlexAtherton100 @duncanbew @LeroyLogan999 @lbilli91 The academic crew have started the mapping process already as you'll see in final chapter policy.bristoluniversitypress.co.uk/preventing-vio… #PublicHealth

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

Channel 4 News show how underfunding from the Conservative government since 2010 is killing the NHS. You can be lazy and blame migrants for the struggling NHS. Or you can blame the Conservative government for not investing in the NHS #bbcqt

Mr @Nigel_Farage I am sorry that a few words of Arabic can be so triggering. The Lord Mayor did a great job welcoming us with his gesture that cut through the awkwardness and pomp. But I guess welcoming people in Britain is your worst nightmare.

@NewmanUni_YandC But do we truly believe in 'process over product'? Do we spent too much time trying to measure intangible outcomes when we *know* that YW is a phronetic good? We shouldn't be indifferent to the fact that there *are* outcomes, but maybe we spend too much energy searching for them.

@youthworkable 🤔 not sure we don't care about outcomes; it's the economic/education/labour intensive ones that get foregrounded, which trouble us. Distance travelled is of such value and permanence but difficult to measure and yet is not seen as worthy in the contemporary outcome discourse.

Do you agree? "The power of #YouthWork is in its desire to transcend power dynamics by simply not caring about outcomes" - Gharabaghi, 2014, p.20
