Does the council have any expertise in traffic management..or is it making up half baked solutions on the trot? It seems like the council will do anything except open up the LTNs. It’s a farce

When someone well-known dies, it can be difficult to know how to support children and young people through that loss. We’ve shared some advice to help families and schools support children over the coming days. place2be.org.uk/about-us/news-…

I volunteer at Elizabeth House foodbank. Today, an anonymous donor from Highbury Fields Assn, popped in and donated £2000 in the Queen’s memory. What a lovely kindness.

Donate £10 at the link, and you could end up with a pair of tickets to an exclusive Ed Sheeran show. All money raised will go towards keeping our service up and running 💙 crowdfunder.co.uk/p/for-one-nigh…

But this plan doesn’t contain detail on how this will be achieved or funded. We need to see the delivery of the Government’s 10-year mental health plan so that no child or young person faces #mentalhealth issues alone. (2/2)

As a Council Leader, I have to make tough choices every day. But providing universal free school meals in Islington's primary schools isn't one of them, it's a no brainer. Delighted to speak on BBC Radio 4 Today this morning about Islington Council's long-standing free school meals policy

Ahead of a cold winter, we anticipate a high demand for coats and winter accessories. If your little one(s) has grown out of last year's winter coat, consider donating it to support a family in need. For donation info go to littlevillagehq.org/donate-stuff/

This #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek, we urge decision-makers to be ambitious and devise a long-term plan for the wellbeing of all of our children & young people. Focusing on earlier intervention will help to relieve pressure on our NHS & contribute positively to the economy. (3/5)
