Removing the two-child benefit cap will benefit 1.6m of Britain's poorest children. Nurseries improving parental outcomes and childhood outcomes are "terrific" explains @michaelmarmot to @RSheikh26 for BBC Panorama bit.ly/3S8sKHS

It was a pleasure to host @frankcottrell_b and @Booktrust. There was so much positivity and energy in the room about the power of story and books. We really need to raise the esteem and value of early years practitioners if we are going to realise this potential. @sheffhallamuni
Thank you so much to everyone at Meadows Nursery, @SheffLibraries and @frankcottrell_b for letting us join this special visit - we're so excited to see how Frank takes these conversations forward!
