The law changes today in Scotland giving children equal protection from assault as adults. It’s an important step to realising children’s rights in law. This has been thanks to years of campaigning by many, incl. @children1st @NSPCC_Scotland @BarnardosScot @CYPCS @JohnFinnieHI

"I'm delighted that as of Saturday Scotland's children are going to be given equal protection from assault. The same protection as I and every other adult in Scotland enjoys at the moment." - @JohnFinnieHI 💚

We’ve been receiving lots of lovely thank you messages in response to the #Coronavirus Urgent Assistance grants we have given over the past few weeks. This has only been possible thanks to the donations we have received from our supporters so we wanted to share them with you.

The latest poverty statistics show that #childpoverty in Scotland is rising. This tells us that despite the #ScottishChildPayment @ScotGov efforts to reduce child poverty are failing. @ScotGov must make different political choices to tackle the scourge of child poverty.

To #KeepThePromise to our children & families “Scotland must take a more flexible, whole family approach to supporting children living with parents with problematic substance use.” In 2023 we opened our Mother & Child Recovery House for mothers and children affected by addiction
