Testament to the power of some remarkable lived experience voices determined to deliver change & ensure the #OnlineSafetyAct delivers what was promised 👇🏻
New data highlights that many babies and young children are not getting the safe, happy, and healthy start to life that they deserve.
We're urging the next Government to put #ChildrenAtTheTable and make good childhoods a national priority. Read more: bit.ly/3TNVBlT
Our Policy and Public Affairs team were at the #ConservativeParty conference to chat with politicians about how they can make sure #ChildrenAreAtTheTable
We've joined @BarnadosScot & Action for Children to call on all political parties to make sure children's voices are heard
Sadly, there were few measures in the #Budget to help children in the most desperate need. We are disappointed that our repeated calls for significant funding to rebuild children’s services have gone unheeded.

#ChildrenAtTheTable
“It’s alarming to see online child abuse continue to rise, especially when tech companies should be acting to make their sites safe by design ahead of incoming regulation', said Peter Wanless theguardian.com/society/2024/m…
We’ve teamed up with Barnardo's Scotland and Action for Children to call on all political parties to put #ChildrenAtTheTable by making children's voices heard in the up-and-coming general election.

This should be a wake up call to government as data from Royal College of Psychiatrists finds that the number of children referred for emergency mental healthcare in England soared by more than 50% between 2019 and 2022. Devastating. theguardian.com/society/2024/f…
The theme of year's #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek is 'My Voice Matters', and it couldn't be more pertinent. Children don’t feel their voices are heard and taken into account and we must change that especially when it comes to mental health and well-being.

Hey Mark Zuckerberg,
Your company calculated the lifetime value of a teen to be $270. We’re here to say we’re worth more than $270.
It’s time Big Tech is held accountable for profiting off our mental health and well-being.
Sincerely,
Design It For Us
You don’t get instructions for new human beings 💚
But we’re here.
For the good, the bad and the baffling.
