Just 16, @GretaThunberg is already one of our planet’s greatest advocates. Recognizing that her generation will bear the brunt of climate change, she’s unafraid to push for real action. She embodies our vision at the @ObamaFoundation: A future shaped by young leaders like her.

Great to have @SkyNews filming with us today 🎥 They’re helping us shine a light on the hardship that Universal Credit is causing a growing number of our clients. Keep an eye out for us after 6am tomorrow.

#UniversalCredit should be there to anchor any of us against the tides of #poverty. But our new research shows the longer Universal Credit exists in an area, the higher the need for #foodbanks. Join us in saying enough is enough > action.trusselltrust.org/5we…

Did you know that 1 in 8 children and young people aged between 5 and 19 have a diagnosable mental health condition? Last year, our mental health services and school-based programmes supported 40,100 children, young people and families - like Liam.

"I just think that children can't be children anymore. And that's sad." Helen Cousin has written a book to help parents talk to their children about mental health. bbc.in/2HPS94L

'Children just seem sad nowadays'

A "help me" plea left by a teenager who killed herself inspires her mum to help children's mental health.

"Times are hard & they look like they're going to get harder. But one group who will suffer the brunt are the most disadvantaged, forced further into difficulty by rising food, household items, fuel costs & the threat of job losses." Thank you @SheRa_Marley for the crowdfunder 🙏
