We are so proud of our amazing young trustees for their involvement in our panel event at Party Conference 👏🏼🙌🏼
Brogan, a Young Trustee at The Children’s Society, left us with a powerful message of hope - reminding us that with the right support, the potential of young people is limitless.

Loved working on this with young people from @oasisuk.bsky.social

If you have 5 mins, grab a cuppa ☕️ and watch the full video to hear how young people realise their voice has the power to create change and how they are using it in their communities! 🤩
Young people's voices are at the very heart of our work.

We worked with partners at @oasisuk.bsky.social to explore the importance of youth voice.

Young people share how it has helped them to feel heard and eager to affect change.

25% of children are neurodiverse. The human race is as dependent on neurodiversity as biodiversity! But our education system is not set up for them. We’ve all heard of ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences), but as a result neurodiverse children endure an Adverse System Experience!

Children need a social care system which is safe, caring, and listens to them.

We've been working with @actionforchildren.bsky.social @barnardos.org.uk @wearecoram.bsky.social @ncb.org.uk @nspcc.bsky.social & Become since 2022 to push for reform and ensure young voices are at the centre of change.

Students from @oasisacademies.bsky.social presented our joint report, A Chance at Childhood, to 70+ MPs.

Reflecting on the experience, students wrote: "We weren’t just there to share our stories; we were there to demand change."

My first post on here is all about my two worlds colliding! 🫶✨

Tonight we attended my 6 year old’s Christingle service!! It was so special and very emotional!

Was so good to go into her school last week & talk about how their Christingle money will help @childrenssociety.bsky.social 🥹🥰
