By the skin of her teeth, she's made it! Today was the last day of Elsie's One Million Step Challenge for Diabetes UK and she's just ticked over to a final tally of 1,003,655!
She doesn't stop moving most of the time, but she still had to go out and get some extra steps on some days.

Our new research shows the shocking disruption children in care face during crucial exam years.

@martinlewis.moneysavingexpert.com School payment app sQuid has closed down today. We were only told by our school last Friday. We have a balance of £8.20 that we can't withdraw because they require a minimum balance of £10 to withdraw and they charge a £10 admin fee.

More than 1 in 5 children in care in England are placed over 20 miles from home – some as far as 500 miles. That's #GoneTooFar.
Children should be kept close to the people and places that matter to them 💜 Can you help us reach 10,000 signatures? becomecharity.org.uk/gtf-petition

I'm late to the party but yesterday was #CareDay (organised by brilliant charities like @becomecharity.org.uk). Care Day provides a chance to recognise and celebrate the care-experienced community and call for change to the system so that every child gets the stability, support and love they need.
