Celebrating #Nationalyouthworkweek @DorsetCountyHospital raising awareness of the need for support for transition in healthcare, for young people moving from children's to adults services. Dorset Council UK

For me youth work has never been about me but the young people I work with, whether that be co-founding #UKYP or running a Youth Club from a Village Hall. So join me in celebrating what quality youth work can look like with a little bit of imagination: bucklandnewton.com/BN%20Website%2…

"Operation Jackanory" aims to create a children's & young people's library at Dorset County Hospital. Please donate a book to provide a young person with a world of imagination when they visit or have to stay in hospital: shop.winstonebooks.co.uk/collections/op… Dorset Echo Dorset Council UK

Having walked the dog twice today #Stormbert I feel qualified to rate various pieces of waterproof clothing. I can recommend a #berghaus coat, waterproof trousers from #MountainWarehouse and the left Welly of Cotswold wellies from #MoleValley The right Welly was useless! #wetfeet

Another business that should never have been privatised. Essential services should stay in public hands or we never get them back😢 #water #gas #steel BBC News - Czech billionaire closes in on deal to buy Royal Mail bbc.com/news/articles/…

A long time ago I co-founded #UKYP and this statement from David Clark is incorrect and does a disservice to the young people/Procedures Group members, UKYP staff and Regional Co-ordinators who co-produced #MakeYourMark I'm fed up with other people claiming the credit for UKYP.

A dead rat in the car park and a pigeon flying around inside the store in Tesco #Dorchester this evening. Not exactly hygienic😳

I had 20 bags of compost for Christmas BBC Radio 4 Today #lovegardening

Interesting discussion about the environment, heat pumps and electric cars on BBC Radio 4 PM this evening. But when is there going to be a discussion about the thousands of people in rural areas who are dependent on oil for heating Evan Davis

I run a Youth Club & I don't allow mobile phones. In fact I have a mobile phone pile of shame which is where any mobiles go if I find anyone with them. We see young people spending time with their friends, developing social skills & joining in with activities BBC Radio 4 Today

What is going on @NationalHighWays DFT more than 1.5 hours (so far) on the M3 to travel less than 3 miles. I'm sure this could have been better managed?!

So often magazine articles and television programs focus on encouraging children (under 11s) to grow. But why does this stop at Primary School? Buckland Newton Youth Club members took on an allotment in 2024 and having cleared it started sowing this evening. BBC Gardeners World Department for Culture, Media and Sport

Just been quoted £1075 for a place on the school bus so that my son can enter 6th Form Education. How is this affordable when staying in education (employment/training - both paid) is compulsory? #Ruralinequalities BBC News (UK) @BBCMarkEaston Department for Education Edward Morello MP

Inspired by @francestophill Buckland Newton Youth Club has been making its own version of the greenhouse. The wood for the frame was also donated by local business Flytes of Fancy, but none of this would have been possible without a grant from @wessexwater_ BBC Gardeners World

Waiting for a delayed train at #Waterloostation and I've been approached by at least 6 people begging in the last 30 minutes. This hasn't happened since the 1980s. Very sad.

Buckland Newton Youth Club's allotment provides young people with a safe space where they can learn new skills, grow their own food, learn how to cook it and of course it supports positive mental health. Save our allotments! The World at One Angela Rayner

Listening to the PM program on BBC Radio 4 Why is it only men being asked how to maintain peace in Gaza? No one wins a war and it is always the women and children who suffer, so why can't we have the women at the table negotiating for healthcare, education and peace? Evan Davis

Launching today @DorsetCountyHospital Operation Jackanory, to create a library for children and young people who visit and stay at the hospital. To donate a book scan the QR books. Amol Rajan BBC News (UK) ALASTAIR CAMPBELL
