Very grateful to work for an organisation that prioritises staff wellbeing.

This week we all have 2 hours to focus on ourselves - I had a lovely cycle down Porty prom and have to say I am feeling fresh (partly due to the thick haar that arrived shortly after this pic)

#MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

Brilliant opportunity for young people keen to make a difference 👇

Today is one of our favourite days of the year: National Pet Day! 🐶 🐱 🐰

In the spirit of things, we thought we'd show off some of our team members who may not be on the payroll but are still absolutely essential to the smooth running of the organisation.

Yesterday, the entire Children in Scotland team got together for our quarterly all staff meeting. It was a great opportunity to connect as an organisation, to take stock of the year so far, and to look towards the future of the children's sector.

And we were lucky enough to get a bit of sun! 🌞

Immensely proud of the @childreninscotland.bsky.social comms team as we deliver another quality issue of Insight magazine. Out now for Children in Scotland members!

In response to the government figures on #childpoverty released today, our Chief Executive, Dr Judith Turbyne, has acknowledged the impact of key policies “moving things in the right direction” while also calling for "more ambitious investment" to meet targets.
