It is not widely known, amongst people who grew up in care before 1989, that we owe our rights to access our child care files to a fellow care leaver. That’s why Jim and Rosie have written this short account for Care Experienced History Month. acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc…

“We children in care who are supposed to feel ashamed, to never talk about our story, who are supposed to be quiet at the dinner party, who were not supposed to say were adopted/fostered. Not to spoil the party. We are owning our identity & owning ourselves” ~ lemn sissay OBE FRSL 👑

Children with early life trauma are earthquake detectors. 🫨🕵️ Problem is... they are very, very good at detection. Too good. Stick with me on this... 🧵👇

If you know any care-experienced people aged 25 and under who would be interested in a FULL undergraduate scholarship, FYI this brilliant initiative from John Lewis Partnership News in partnership with the The Open University. Applications close 24 July. open.ac.uk/courses/fees-a…

The campaign to make care experience a protected characteristic is building momentum every single day. And with a new government we will continue to make our case and hopefully get it passed through Parliament. Every single child in care deserve the chance to live a good life. I

20 years ago I was forced to say goodbye to my beautiful children. I was told not to cry, to make it a positive experience for them. Knowing we may never see each other again I held them tightly and we cried together. To do anything else was just cruel x.com/AFrazerWicks/s…

117,100 Ghost Children. We had one child out of school 3yrs. Now flourishing. Long-term MH cost to children not researched. We need to build more SEND schools. LAs pay huge fees to private SEND schools. I believe, this accounts for some of the LA delays in finding placements. 1/2

Lovely to see this out there. The editorial team (of which I am one) have worked on this for months. It is written and produced entirely by care leavers of all ages. If you read it, please do the survey and tell us how it can be developed. It's coming out quarterly from now on.

Very full circle moment to be invited as press for Alma’s Not Normal S2. 📺 What a joy to be in a room where the star & writer of the show is care experienced, AND the screening is hosted by lemn sissay OBE FRSL. Just shows, #CEP not only belong in these spaces; we can dominate them ✊

People often ask, what is privilege, when discussed in terms of race and equity. People struggle to understand it. Privilege - is knowing you can travel around Britain at the moment, without fear of being attacked. So many friends having to cancel holidays, change plans. Sad!

Lovely to see our access to child care files video guide out there. It features the thoughts of Sam, Toya and myself, who have all accessed our files. It draws on our experiences and on the CLA's many years of helping fellow care leavers access their files.
