#journorequest Researching a story about the care profession. A drive to retain and develop staff to stem flow of thousands leaving. Looking for someone who’s decided to leave the sector because of current pressures, for a TV piece on Monday. Please share!

If children are disrespected enough times they will start to think that its ok because they don't know any better! Just saying! #SEND #sendhelp

Ian once told me I don’t understand public art. Fair play, i see it now ian.

Parents are calling for an independent investigation into the service that runs Worcestershire Childrens services, over SEND failings & poor treatment of children. One mum says her family will never recover from the years of battling to get support. worcesternews.co.uk/news/20178679.…

A member of our community reached out to FTB for clinical support and got this referring them to a paid for NVR service provided by a charity. Gatekeeping at its worst in my opinion.MK Birmingham Live Birmingham Children's Trust @qehbham Children's Quarter Northfield Labour

And parent blaming - parent wants mental health support for child and I’d referred for parenting course - absolutely disgusting in my opinion Children's Quarter LeaderofBirmingham BBC News (UK) BBC The One Show SPARK for Autism @AcceptApproach

The system is absolutely broken , this is a dreadful way to treat families reaching out for mental health support in Birmingham Sharon Thompson🌹🇰🇳 @Kirsten_KE @alex4knn Jane Haynes BBC The One Show

Goodnight from God awful Birmingham where all the kids from the neighborhood turned up to roast marshmallows on the fire. Dreadful scenes. I ❤️ Birmingham with all my heart. It's not perfect but it's a lovely community where people are comfy with each other and themselves.

I am tired Of #ActuallyAutistic experiences/voices being invalidate in our schools, LAs and even #SENDIST ! Ignoring the pleas of #Autistic parents who have been failed and can see what is unfolding for their CYP who are #NotFineInSchool . 1/2

We have to stem the flood of autistic people falling out of school or needing years of support to recover from trauma! This will only start when #autistic voices are heard and acted upon. #send #ExcludedByNotBeingIncluded

Thank you Cllr Kerry Jenkins🌹 and the scrutiny committee for the opportunity to once again highlight the disparity in what the powers that be, say is happening, and the lived experience of send families on the ground 💜 youtube.com/live/zDcP9IDqS…

So many parents are burnt out from the fight for services, more than being a full time parent carer. It’s so wrong 😔💜
