More than 1 in 5 children in care in England are placed over 20 miles from home – some as far as 500 miles. That's #GoneTooFar. Children should be kept close to the people and places that matter to them 💜 Can you help us reach 10,000 signatures? becomecharity.org.uk/gtf-pet…

We may experience stress for many different reasons but it is important that we take care of ourselves as stress can lead to other health issues. Remember to always take time for yourself because you matter. 🧡 Visit Student Space for more advice: ow.ly/tXS850U1u00
