The problem with a ‘strategy’ that is basically “let’s do the minimum we need to be better than rangers” is that other teams are also better than rangers.

Being a trustee for @together-sacr.bsky.social is such a rewarding role. The best part of being a Together Trustee is taking forward our mission to make sure that every baby, child and young person in Scotland experiences all of their human rights, all of the time! Join us & amazing other trustees.

We saw baby green sea turtles being released into the ocean today. It was amazing. Incredible work by Kapas Turtle Conservation team to keep the eggs safe until they hatch and then give them the best possible chance to survive in the wild. Only 1 in 1000 will reach adulthood. 🤞🐢

An incredible week in Sabah in Malysian Borneo seeing orangutans, sun bears and all sorts of monkeys, birds and other animals. A privilege to experience nature this way and spend some time in the jungle. A beautiful and precious place and home to such an array of amazing wildlife in all their glory.

In the ancient city of Hoi An. The Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese and French have all shaped the city’s history over the centuries. Famous for its lantern making and lantern festival. A really beautiful place. 🇻🇳 #HoiAn #Vietnam

Train Street in Hanoi. Not really anywhere else where you can experience having a coffee as a train passes within centimetres of where you are sitting.

Thanks @maggiechapman.bsky.social for joining our panel @aberlourcharity.bsky.social & Govan Law Centre joint fringe on child poverty and the public debt crisis. Great to hear support for our calls to do debt recovery differently at @scottishgreens.org conference. @sallyannkelly1.bsky.social

Yesterday’s @aberlourcharity.bsky.social & @uofgpolicy.bsky.social Child Poverty & the Public Debt Conference showed the desire and political consensus to see real change across Scotland to do public debt recovery differently to help end child poverty. Thanks to everyone who joined us and took part.
