Nice one Charlotte Nichols

prisons with a history of opiate use are at significant risk of accidental following liberation, particularly in the first few weeks. and adequate training may mean they can be helped/save someone else.

Either we can throw around labels and descriptors of ppl or we can't.

If she gets bullied it's your fault.
If she gets targeted for grooming its your fault.
If when older she realises it's on the internet for life it's your fault.

SFAD safeguarding failure and dangerous

When you post a promo video of a young person that means everyone knows they are connected in some way to a user - that's bad safeguarding.

I know personal sensitive info about her, I know you're desperate to show ppl you do work with kids - you're a danger. She's vulnerable

Do you think the fellowship or recovery means you get to keep your children?

No.

So why aren't you fighting for mother's?

Maybe we should stop focusing on the 'after' and start working on the 'beginning'.

If the data shows women are presenting at an older age, have had children taken Office for Health Improvement and Disparities do you ask yourselves where they were prior to coming in? Question that they must have been in the community - hidden? Are we looking at the same data? Are you PHE?

You've had your child/children taken but you're not allowed to feel pain or grief. You're not given warmth understanding any sympathy. You're shamed, you're blamed, you're a bad mother. So yes of course recovery sounds like the exact thing - none of them fkn want!

I don't like words like 'rehabilitation' - it's always about the person. It's always the responsibility of the person. What is it ppl mean by that word? What is they are expecting? This is not helping change any broken systems

I learnt a valuable lesson handing out HR to mothers. My LE was not helping - I learnt that making it a sideways move to them - I'm you just at a different point on the timeline meant they saw me differently. It's about positives & I was no longer 'other' to them. It matters

Men don't like to talk about stuff and for a long time I used to believe that, and it nearly ended my life. I just finished going to trauma therapy and I feel so much better talking about my feelings in order to be the best version of myself.

I'm unsure what can be said about the Rwanda travesty. What is wrong with this country - is this who we want to be? Is this the kind of thing we think our grandchildren will look back on with anything but utter disgust. I don't know how to process this nightmare

Repugnant.

'Youth at danger of suicide and self-harm were those most commonly subject to separate confinement ... prolonged isolation periods were experienced almost exclusively by Indigenous and racialized girls.'

what Keir won't be doing is looking at inequalities or addressing any issues that might relate to causation. Keir - who seems to care about police, PE and not being Rishi. But hey, anything to get the Tories out we're all thinking

Decriminalization has two main objectives: keep people with small amounts of illicit drugs out of the criminal justice system, and to reduce stigma around people who use drugs. There are wider ranging benefits to decriminalization. Educate yourselves. ccsa.ca/sites/default/…

who are we safeguarding from what? we have to take the blame for the damage we create & the damage you do. We are not saving children this way, it is broken, it is brutal & it is wrong. Every child in the uncare system is 'at risk' of emotional harm

Just like how mental health stigma definitely exists, but never in *our* service - always somewhere over there.

Patriotism - it is weird to see ppl talk about this (Keir looked like an EDL poster boy). Not sure you can feel it towards a country that doesn't like want accept help you unless you fit the 'average' image. A country that identifies you as bad when young & keeps that position
