We very much welcome this report and that the voices of care-experienced young people we work with, alongside Barnardo’s, have impacted the Committee's response to the Bill. Well done Lamar, Georgia, Louise and Jake 👏

📍 There are almost 18,000 children in care living 20+ miles away from the people and places that matter to them. Young campaigners from our Gone Too Far campaign asked the public how they would feel if they had to suddenly move away from their home. Here's what they said.

📣 Noticed something new? We are becoming louder and more determined for change.

"Comments by a Reform councillor in Cambridgeshire that children in care are 'evil' are unacceptable. Children in care shouldn't have to hear this. It's discrimination and needs to be challenged." - katharinesj.bsky.social, our Chief Exec.

Children in care being uprooted midway through their studies has devastating life-long consequences. It's not good enough. All children should have a fair chance - show your support by sharing Become new report
