Come on Northern Ireland 💪 political leaders across the UK must listen to campaigners fighting for families and scrap this cruel policy that impacts so many children. When one child misses out, all of them do.

This is extremely important research. It's v difficult for initiatives the scale of Sure Start to achieve this level of success. A travesty it's been eroded by cuts that have not only blighted children's lives but stored up future cost for the Treasury.

We are incredibly sad to be losing our media spokesperson James Denselow, but wish him well in his new chapter!
James has helped us land some of the most important news stories that highlight the plight of children in conflict & always reminding us - children deserve better.
Children are passionate about making change - but only 1 in 5 feel like those in power listen. I'm taking their voices, views & experiences to politicians & policymakers with this challenge: listen, and act on what children are telling you. #TheBigAmbition childrenscommissioner.gov.uk/blog/one-milli…
