'At a recent closure event for Children England (a small 80-year-old charity), its chief executive, Kathy Evans, described them as the mechanism whereby people’s ideas about how to improve the world are turned into action'

Terrible that @ChildrenEngland led by one of our brilliant founding members Kathy Evans had to close, but wonderful that it is capturing its legacy through these podcasts. Do listen if you can.

'Building a world fit for our children to live is no small feat. It requires radical visions that are brave enough to be worth mourning the loss of, and the tenacity and empathy to create the relationships and take the practical steps to start creating this hopeful world. '
