Deeply concerning to see the rise in primary school exclusions and suspensions highlighted by ⁦Chance UK⁩ ⁦Vanessa Longley⁩. Important work to understand long term impact and urgent change needed to improve the system for all concerned. itv.com/watch/news/cha…

In 2016, those closest to Jo lost their mum, daughter, sister, wife, friend, and colleague. We all lost a talented politician and passionate campaigner, who was driven by her belief that a fairer, kinder and more tolerant world was possible. (2/7)

London would not be the best city in the world without the men, women and children who arrived from the Caribbean on HMT Empire Windrush on this day 76 years ago. This Windrush Day, we shine a light on the Windrush Generation so that their contribution will never be forgotten.

Rallying call to keep advocating really resonated. So much energy and ambition for change from the sector too…and even the rain held off for most of it!

Great to hear Department for Culture, Media and Sport Secretary of State Lisa Nandy MP sharing her determination for choices and chances for every child wherever they live and whatever their background. Also impressed by her ability to weave in references to Engels and Take That in the same speech!

This Volunteers’ Week I want to recognise the incredible contribution thousands of volunteers across London make to life in our city. We have some of the highest participation rates in the whole country. Volunteers are helping us build stronger, more connected communities.
