Partnering with NYAS to End the Use of Bin Bags for Children in Care
We are proud to announce our partnership with NYAS (National Youth Advocacy Service) to support the My Things Matter campaign, which aims to end the practice of moving children in care with bin bags. Unfortunately, children in care have been moving home without the dignity and respect they deserve for far too long.
The Importance of Dignity and Respect
The My Things Matter campaign is focused on improving support and respect for care-experienced children and their belongings during transitions across England and Wales. We believe that every child deserves to feel valued and dignified, especially during times of change.
A Call to Action
To support this change, we are asking local authorities across England and Wales to adopt and implement the My Things Matter pledge. This pledge is designed to ensure that the moving experience is as positive as possible for children and young people in the care system.
Join Us in Making a Difference
We invite you to check out NYAS for more information about the My Things Matter campaign and how you can get involved. Together, we can work towards a future where no child in care has to move with their belongings in bin bags.
Conclusion
In conclusion, our partnership with NYAS and the My Things Matter campaign is a vital step in advocating for the dignity and respect that care-experienced children deserve. We are committed to making a difference in the lives of these young people and look forward to working together to create positive change. Thank you for your support!
