It's amazing what evidence based policy can do.

The evidence that the 20mph limit is working fantastic from the point of view of saving lives and saving the taxpayer money in Wales is overwhelming.

You can be annoyed about it.

But you can't argue that it isn't doing what it was supposed to do.

For neurodivergent children, hospice care is also about understanding their unique needs, creating sensory-friendly environments, and ensuring they receive compassionate, tailored care.

Great to be part of the Welsh Medium ALN Event in Cardiff today and to meet so many educators interested in our work

Thank you to Welsh Government for the opportunity to showcase our resources. Great to hear about the hard work being done across Wales to develop ALN resources in the Welsh language.

Incredible.
Badenoch: “The govt is recruiting a new chief inspector of borders, who lives in Finland & wants to WFH, this is not serious”

Starmer: “He was appointed in 2019 by the last govt, he then worked from Finland. He’ll now be working from the UK full time”
