the making of three short but very powerful films by young people about
growing up in care. They beautifully illustrate an issue that had been
picked up in a small bit of play research - a hint that children growing
up in care have less opportunity for independent play than other kids.
Please watch these films - they will connect you to the real lived
experience of these young people."

"I'm delighted that MPs have voted decisively in favour of mitochondrial gene replacement therapy. I remain disappointed and saddened that the Church of England and the Roman Catholic Church failed to support a measure that will improve the lives of very many children, and remove the certainty of mothers passing on faulty genetic material down the generations. Still, perhaps the Church of England at least will, now, review its position and not try to stop Anglican mothers from benefitting."
