New?, pushing back on schools is not the answer. 1. Identify children not engaging with edu early, alternative structures (Part Edu & skill based qualification) 2. In school/home mentoring as early as yr 7 3. YP excluded need structure & serious attention which requires 💰 👀

This week, I visited Frenford Youth Club to learn more on the great work they do with young people including sports, mentoring, study and the outreach services they help deliver to local residents. They always need volunteers & donations for their food bank, please help if you can.

Thanks for coming & I hope the council is able to step up and support the work Frenford Youth Club does for the community & young people. In the current climate where many youth clubs have closed & many face stiff challenges, Frenford would welcome the support of Redbridge Council

Democracy is great and is for everyone unless you are children in #Gaza, then it’s just how it goes. Hypocrites

Youth Hubs/Centres/Clubs: it’s frustrating that we only talk about new initiates, policies, strategies & youth violence like that’s the only issue facing YP 2day. Can we find ways 2 help sustain the work youth Hubs/Centres/Clubs already do. #youthclubs #youthwork #Sustainability

Our detached team out in Ilford listening and engaging with young people

This has created many positive opportunities for work with young people & has helped YP regulate themselves. Government/LA Needs to support with funding. Our detached team & mentoring program Frenford Youth Club are proof that with the right investment, you can see real impact.

Crazy that Mark Pritchard MP has to even say this. When the blindfold is lifted, the truth will always prevail.

The scale of the insanity and genocide live

Gary Lineker’s biggest “error” was to care about the on-going slaughter of children in Gaza and call it such in public. It’s the kind of “error” more people should make.

"They're so tiny, so little, so thin." Dr Tiziana Roggio, a surgeon volunteering at Gaza's Nasser Hospital, says she has been unable to operate on some children as they are so malnourished they may not survive surgery. Latest: trib.al/goh9WzD 📺 Sky 501 and Virgin 602

The Settlers, the doc I made for the BBC, is now available to stream in the US on BBC Select. It couldn’t be more timely with the announcement today that the Israeli govt has approved construction of 22 new settlements in the West Bank - which are illegal under international law.

Was good of Lord Wajid Khan to spend some time listening to the wonderful work that goes on Frenford Youth Club. He was impressed with what was on offer for young people and complimented the great opportunities for the wider community. Thanks Yusuf Patel MBE for arranging the visit.

Kids, bloody innocent children being blown up. I’m talking to you, you fucking think this is okay while you tuck your children or grandchildren in to there comfy beds, you shameless bastards. They are bombing tents, food queues, parents carrying there kids in carrier bags.

Nothing but unconditional love and respect for this incredible woman You give us all hope We will never let them silence you The world stands with you Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt now and always…

🤣🤣🤣🤣 this is what they mean by a Free World and Democracy

🫵🏻 support this right

Such respect for ppl across the world protesting against the genocide of #Palestinian ppl. Standing up against innocent people suffering an illegal occupation, starvation, mass murder & the massacre of so many children. It’s okay to hate Israel’s gov, settlers & IDF, EVIL

Thank you Premier League for recognising the work Neal Akhtar is doing here at Frenford FC Frenford Youth Club Frenford & MSA WFC Frenford is a home away from home

It has taken an enforced famine on two million people, including one million children, for the British media and voices across the political spectrum to finally raise serious protest against Israel’s crimes. Palestine is not a question of left or right. It is a question of right
