NEWSFLASH: there's actually some good news for a change: Newham Children's Service rated 'GOOD' by OFSTED: 'an ambitious programme of development...a relationship-based model of practice...has greatly strengthened practice and created a positive culture'. reports.ofsted.gov.uk/provider/44/80…

@BandBajaateRaho Thanks!

I’m really upset by the response from @FlySWISS to a cancelled flight my son was booked on 19th July - flight was cancelled due to a fault - no replacement provided. We had to book another flight - now not offering compensation or a refund! Poor customer service! @Moneybox

A very proud moment for Camden as we now recognise care experience as a locally protected characteristic! Alongside this, we're also providing free Wi-Fi to Camden carer leavers up to 25yrs to further support those with care experience 💻 Find out more 👇news.camden.gov.uk/camden-care-le…

BREAKING: Camden Council really did hear our voice tonight! Unanimous support for Care Experience to be treated as a Protected Characteristic as motion passes @CamdenCouncil With a fantastic speech from @lemnsissay and others with private heartwarming speeches from care leavers in the mayor's parlour. Thank you Camden for your support @ccwild79

Tonight, we're in Camden @CamdenCouncil as they pass motion to make care experience a protected characteristic. @TerryGalloway #changeiscoming.Children in care are still children.

Big news! Following a debate at Full Council, we've agreed to award those with care experience in Camden protected characteristic status 👏 Free wifi will also be provided to care leavers up to 25! This means more support for those in care and those who have care experience 🤍

Join us from 7pm for Full Council which will discuss recognising care experience as a protected characteristic to help ensure that no one with care experience is discriminated against in Camden. Hear from @lemnsissay @TerryGalloway and more! Watch live: civico.net/camden/18440

Feeling a bit emotional…my last day in Newham. Thank you to all my wonderful colleagues for all your support and encouragement. It’s been challenging at times but also immensely rewarding…I’ve learnt so much and proud of all our achievements. Best of luck for the future!
