This is so depressing from #Ghana. The experience of the young people is so similar to the fishing industry with its child labour and trafficking problems which Challenging Heights and others work so hard to eradicate. #exploitation #childlabour

And of course ultimately our desire for cheap chocolate is a major driver behind the problem. Especially when the farmer gets just 11p out of that Ā£1 choc bar… #exploitation #childlabour #ghana

I’m looking forward to the start of the #ImpactForum2022 run by Centre for Homelessness Impact to hear all about latest ideas in #prevention of #Homelessness. If only I could have been there physically in Birmingham. Ho hum, it’s not like joining conferences by Zoom is a new thing!

I have edited together for you some rare colour film footage of the queues and London crowds for the Lying In State and funeral procession of King George VI in February 1952. Events, just as today, separated by 70 years. (This is not colourised)

I’ve just added my name to support the Trussell Trust to help families do more than just survive this summer. With soaring energy prices and sky-high inflation, this isn't a cost of living crisis - it's the cost of surviving. Please show your support at trusselltrust.org/surviving/

Really interesting and, at times, intriguing list of issues where media coverage doesn’t match what’s actually going on…..
