Young people with care experience have shown huge determination and resilience this year. For #CareDay21, we are celebrating all young people in care and care leavers, including those we work with through @nlcbf and @ypbmf, the #ConnectCareLeavers campaign, #BrightLight and more.

Working in a public space like the service, retail or transport industries, may put you in a position to spot signs of exploitation and abuse. Know how to #LookCloser and help protect young people.

Now in our 3rd national lockdown, the need for access to devices and data is greater than ever. From increasing isolation in the elderly to limiting education, #digitalexclusion is growing existing social #inequalities. Our latest blog looks at the impact: ow.ly/m4dD50DdBoM

As lockdown restrictions continue, victims of #ModernSlavery are becoming more visible. Could you spot the signs? Listen to our podcast to learn how those in the transport and logistics sectors are training their workforces to do so. bit.ly/2Iujtsu #SlaveryOnYourDoorstep

If you are digitally connected, you can complete online learning, apply for jobs, connect with friends and much more. However, many care leavers are digitally excluded. Please read our letter and sign the petition to #ConnectCareLeavers for #GetOnlineWeek: ow.ly/3Fn650BXrhF

Loved working with the @natyouthagency on this piece of research. I hope that it will assist fellow practitioners in 'waking' up those that have forgot how powerful youth work approaches can be to help transform the lives of young people.

Our CSE expert tells us that when a child goes missing there is a reason for it. If we as a society educate ourselves on the reasons children go missing in the first place we can better safeguard them to prevent missing episodes and exploitation. #IMCD #missingchildren

.@sajidjavid: "Dealing with [violent crime] is not just a simple case of turning around stats. That's why I launched the £200m @YouthEndowFund to help steer vulnerable young people away from serious violence & offer them a better future" @ukhomeoffice youthendowmentfund.org.uk

Was happy to be at Threasa May's youth violence summit.
I argued that knife crime can be solved through:
1) giving young people more opportunities
2) tackling calamitous levels of child poverty
3) funding youth clubs
4) properly investing in schools
5) ending austerity

With knife crime on the rise and having devastating consequences on the lives of young people, yesterday I met @Catch22, an organisation doing really important work to try to prevent violent crime.
