Today, @charischittick.bsky.social gave evidence at @parliament.scot on the #ScottishBudget & the impact of removing the #TwoChildLimit We spoke about need for investment in social security & long-term funding for advice services, including support accessing #ChildMaintenance

The #ScottishBudget is a critical opportunity for politicians to rebuild trust by acting on the issues that matter most to people in Scotland, like child poverty. We are calling for the Scottish Government to build on what’s already working by increasing the Scottish Child Payment to £40 a week.

Real change is possible! At @weallscotland.bsky.social we are working with our members to co-create our manifesto for the economy. Right now people across Scotland are struggling, we can and must do better. Join us in shaping our manifesto and call on politicians to act now for a better future.

Today's #ProgrammeForGovernment falls short of what we need to create a #WellbeingEconomy in Scotland where everyone can thrive. Read our full response: weallscotland.org/post/pfg2025

By taking an axe to underfunded welfare programmes, the UK Government's Spring Statement is repeating the mistakes of the past. Read our full response here: www.futureeconomy.scot/press/84-res...

It’s deeply concerning to hear of cuts to social security ahead of today’s Spring Statement. Social security should be a safety net and spring board to support all of us when we need it. Right now it’s failing. We need an economy that is centred on justice and compassion where everyone can thrive.

This is a great opportunity to join our wee team. It’s a fantastic team to be part of and we’d love to find the right person to join us. Please help by sharing with anyone you know who might be interested.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our Purpose film screenings sponsored by @corra.scot. We loved seeing so many of you there, having inspiring conversations and seeing the commitment to redesigning our economy in Scotland. #WellbeingEconomy 📸 Emma Boyd

🚨 Today’s announcement is alarming. It’s true, our social security system needs an urgent update. But cutting disability benefits is not the way to fix it. Disabled people are already three times more likely to face hunger. Huge cuts risk pushing more people to food banks.

The proposed cuts to disability benefits are unacceptable and immoral, full stop. And if the big cuts come from PIP, the impact on the SG's budget will also be massive. The next SG will have to cut disability payments too or fill the gap and find the money on a fixed budget.

📢 New report out now highlights how our economy is failing the people of Scotland. We joined voices with leading academics and economists to call for the people of Scotland to have more of a say in the decisions that impact their lives. Find out more: www.weallscotland.org/post/new-rep...

The National Outcomes have the potential to be transformational. In today's @scotparl.bsky.social debate, we are calling on MSPs to be bold and ensure the National Outcomes deliver on the powerful vision they create. #WellbeingEconomy www.weallscotland.org/post/weall-s...

Yesterday's #ScottishBudget brought some welcome measures that are a step in the right direction. But we must move beyond expensive sticking plaster solutions and use the full budgetary powers to enable our communities to thrive. Read our full response: www.weallscotland.org/post/scottis...

Imagine a Scotland where every child grows up free from poverty. Where our hospitals/schools have the resources to care for all, where we’re tackling the climate crisis head-on. A fairer tax system can help make it a reality. That's why we're backing #TaxJusticeScotland

At a time when energy prices are already unaffordable for many and household budgets are under increasing strain, many breaking, this is very concerning. It is unacceptable that right now people are struggling to afford the essentials just to survive. We need to see systemic, lasting change.

I’m really looking forward to being part of this important event next week. Community Wealth Building is a key part of building a #WellbeingEconomy in Scotland. Come and join the conversation 👇

🚨 122,000 emergency food parcels were provided by food banks in the Trussell community in Scotland in just 6 months. 1 in 3 of these were for children. No child in Scotland should be facing hunger - we need urgent action to address this & ensure everyone can afford the essentials
