It's brilliant getting a hard copy of Children's Parliament #DemocracyMatters project into the office. Really shows the hard work that went into Confidence Kingdom! Further thanks to MCP members, Rida and Flynn, for their recent blog entries. It was great working with you on this.

MCP Rida reflects on her experience at the Democracy Matters residential in our newest blog, childrensparliament.org.uk/news/children-… on how it feels to be listened to and valued as a child engaging in local community decision-making. #democracymatters CommunityEmpowerment Tom Arthur

On reflection, Flynn shares 'If you are given an opportunity, you should take it.'💫 Find his blog here: childrensparliament.org.uk/news/one-big-f… #democracymatters CommunityEmpowerment

#TimeToTalk Day is the nation’s biggest mental health conversation. We’re encouraging more honest conversations to help combat the stigma around mental health.

2024's theme is ‘what I really mean’, highlighting that the words we say don’t always reflect what’s going on.
