Hey 👋

Our first words on @bsky.app go to Salma, a care experienced young woman in London, who explains how our Lifelong Links approach has made a difference for her and for other young people in the care system.

#BuildNotBreak I had the privilege of hearing Salam tell her story at the House of Lords. Completely blown away by her strength, her humour & story telling. Never have I heard or been witness to such honouring of lived truths. We’ve still much to learn. #ThankYou @familyrightsgp.bsky.social #frg
