Breaking cycles of poverty and trauma requires a joint effort across public, third and private sector partners to deliver meaningful social change.
This week was a great opportunity for our grant holders to collaborate with each other and share ideas directly with @scotgov 👇
At an event in Stirling hosted by @RobertsonTrust, @ScotGovFM and @S_A_Somerville met with grant-holders working to reduce and prevent poverty and set out how the Scottish budget will help in the national mission to eradicate child poverty.

What is the cost of a sprinkler system?
It’s estimated the cost of a sprinkler system can be recovered over about 10 years through reduced insurance premiums & less disruption to business continuity if a fire occurs.

It is fantastic to see such attention given to this report but it makes grim reading. Cancer mortality 74% higher in our most deprived communities. cancerresearchuk.org/sites/d…

According to @FMGlobal, sprinklered fires show a reduction in damage of 80 to 85%. It's proven time and time again across the globe that sprinklers can make all the difference in the event of a fire. Watch our newly updated #CPD here: bit.ly/3LVGbVv

Facts matter. Home fire sprinklers are activated by the high heat of a fire - not smoke; not smoke alarms. Spread the facts. homefiresprinkler.org

Last year @AnthonyNolan created a video to thank our @fire_scot volunteers and it seems appropriate to share it again today…because we’ve just heard of another two donations. That is 94 lives potentially saved thanks to them!
Just incredible 🎉

Hopefully we will see as much discussion and promotion of this consultation by Cancer Charities as we did for NHS England’s. It can be frustrating to see mention of and replies to ‘NHS Strategy’ without being clear that it was NHS England. #DevolvedNations #Cancer #BloodCancer – at Scotland, United Kingdom
Cabinet Secretary @HumzaYousaf has welcomed the launch of a consultation to draw up a 10-year-plan to improve cancer outcomes.
The new strategy, which will start next year has a key focus on earlier diagnosis, cancer incidence, treatment times, survival rates and much more.

Does following current regulations adequately protect buildings from fire? 69% of businesses believed that this was enough but unfortunately in the UK, there remains many shortcomings in fire safety law. For help & guidance with sprinklers, watch our #CPD: bit.ly/3wM2TIc

Sprinklers may be growing in popularity but there is still no enforced law to state that premises below 20,000m2 require their installation. In the UK, we still lag far behind our European counterparts and this simply must change... bit.ly/3KH1udC

UK COVID deaths are up by 50% over the last 7 days.
That is almost 2,000 people who have lost their lives.
This is not living with COVID, it’s accepting death on a heartbreaking scale.
