Great to be at St Luke’s Community Centre in Islington today, a registered @warmwelcomeuk.bsky.social Space, for a National Lottery and Sustain event on helping groups move from food poverty to food security!

This is hugely worrying, and points strongly to the need for more co-ordination between national & local government, faith and civil society groups and of course housing providers.

Celebrating my foster daughter’s 18th bday today. Seems like yesterday she arrived aged 13. Think we were all equally terrified at 1st but can’t say how glad I am to have her in my life. Fostering is a rollercoaster for sure but also a unique opportunity to expand your family, your mind & your heart

Our campaign director @davidbarclay.bsky.social was invited onto #BBC Radio #Derby yesterday, as snow fell in Derbyshire and the Midlands, to talk about the Warm Welcome Campaign. You can listen again on the link below. The interview starts at 13.46 in the programme www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Packed house at the @britishfuture.bsky.social and Belong Conference today on Social Cohesion and how we respond to the riots in the summer. Representing Warm Welcome but also the emerging Welcome Coalition seeking to create a national infrastructure to support local welcome for newcomers.

So pleased and proud to have Gordon Brown as our Founding Patron for the Warm Welcome Campaign as we try to make sure everyone has somewhere warm and welcoming to go this winter - www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic... @warmwelcomeuk.bsky.social

This is hugely welcome news - profiteering in children’s social care is an absolutely enormous scandal and Government action on it is long overdue!

This list is growing. A few new additions this morn @jesscraig.bsky.social @jakepuddle.bsky.social @jillyrutter.bsky.social @kenanmalik.bsky.social @athlynck.bsky.social @davidbarclay.bsky.social Do shout if you want to be added, or can think of someone else that should be. go.bsky.app/H5rQDgh

Great way to end the week with the news that there are now more than 4500 registered Warm Welcome Spaces bringing warmth and connection to communities all across the UK. So proud to be part of this growing movement for social connection and community! @warmwelcomeuk.bsky.social

Great to be at the @nationalgrid.bsky.social Smart Energy Advice Forum in Bristol today representing the Warm Welcome Campaign! @warmwelcomeuk.bsky.social

Some thoughts from me on the Labour Party Conference and the parameters for hope under a new Government - www.seenandunseen.com/exploring-la...

Great to be at the @ovoenergy.bsky.social Extra Support Launch today, talking about how we can align resources and support for people who might struggle to get through the coming winter.

Really excited to be heading to London for the first ChurchWorks Commission meeting with the new Government. On the agenda - how can churches shape and help deliver the Child Poverty Strategy and how can we work together to grow the 4000-strong network of Warm Welcome Spaces that ChurchWorks began!

Excited to be here! Have been wanting to leave Twitter for a while and hoping that this might be a good landing spot…
