Fantastic #Mockingbird launch event today by our amazing #fostering team 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Shona Gallagher @AdamEllisonAE Tony Joyce Lucy Cook Coralie Morton NE regional CiCC Children's Commissioner for England

Great feedback about what we do well and suggestions about what more we can all do to ensure we are aspirational for all our young people across the local authority and partnership.

Had such a great night with our care leavers and the parents, carers and team supporting them they are an asset to themselves and those around them. Well done and thank you to all that made it possible especially our care leavers xx

A new service is being launched this week in South Tyneside to help tackle the problem of domestic abuse. The Restart service, within the Council is launching on White Ribbon Day. #SouthTyneside #DomesticAbuse southtyneside.gov.uk/article/74217/…

The White Ribbon flag is flying high above South Shields Town Hall and the clock tower will be lit up orange for 16 days of activism. Find out more and who to contact if you need help. southtyneside.gov.uk/article/74221/… #SouthTyneside #WhiteRibbonDay

Amazing profound and sobering exhibition. Also so proud of those behind it for their efforts, creativity, vision and unfaltering faith it was possible.

As part of #FCF22, we asked some of our Foster Carers why their #fosteringcommunity matters to them. This is Paula and Paul Handy with their dog, Tilly. They said fostering is about being part of a family. #FosteringCommunities

‘The past is for reference not for residence’ - our young people were certainly inspired by the wonderful Nze (QMSI) Kriss Kezie Akabusi (RAPTC) MBE MA OLY at our #StaffAwards 😊👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Shona Gallagher Lucy Cook Coralie Morton @JTew1 Tony Joyce @AdamEllisonAE
