It's been a busy weekend - let's start with this morning.

The government announced that it is banning under 16s from using social media, this will not be fully acted upon until early next year 'possibly spring time'.

Is this a good thing or a bad thing? It is a good thing when it comes to factors such as cyber bullying, peer pressure online and online targeting especially with a younger audience.

It is a bad thing as it can increase the chances of young people getting it in a sneaky way that can be dangerous in both the short term and long term.

With this is mind 🫶 Slow and steady will win the race. In today's society it is all about the baby steps that include help, education, support and nurturing to have early intervention and to reduce this type of nature early on while allowing children and young people to understand the pros and cons of social media.

What is everyone's thoughts on this matter?
Do you agree or disagree?

Let's discuss the differences and similarities between a youth worker and a social worker.

One main difference between the two is that children and young people chose to speak to youth workers instead of the choice being made for them.

Youth workers and social workers both work with children and young people that can be in vulnerable situations but both offer help and support when it is needed.

Youth workers work in settings that can be seen as 'informal' such as youth clubs, outside settings, school settings (in small groups) or community halls.

Both deal with complex issues on a regular basis as well as both being stretched to capacity and beyond. Both learn as they go and may not say anything straight away but do always watch closely.

Youth workers can help with entry-level and vocational training as well as finding resources and careers that can be of interest, social workers find resources but focus on the support and connection. That the resources can give a child or young person.

Both are there for short term and long term development whether that be personal or professionally. As well as both advocates for well-being, fairness, skill building and mentoring.

A massive value that both have is their goal of improving wellbeing as much as they can.

However, both of these roles can give you an insight, however problematic a situation may be. They are NOT there to break you down.

Youth workers work with children, young people and their families through ways such as youth crime, youth violence, emotional stress, career advice through teachable methods.

Hello everyone, 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

We have a windrush generation fact for you to read. As we're 3rd generation windrush (grandparents were first):

Did you know that the windrush generation ran from 1948-1971 and they arrived with just one suitcase. That suitcase started their lives here. Now although they're slowing passing away (our grandparents included), their memory still lives on.

Yes a number of the generation settled in London, but did you also know that because of the bombings in London just after the war, there wasn't enough accommodation, so they slept underneath the train station until they started moving into accommodation that was appropriate.

The windrush generation then went on to work in either the NHS, factories or cleaning which their children and grandchildren now do today.

Windrush generation shaped our lives in society today, through work, culture, food, music and many more.

On 22nd June, let us know what your favourite memory, piece of culture, music, food (well favourite piece of anything) that you still now use today. We'd love to know ☺️☺️!!

Ps. Positive memories only, we do not accept negativity (this includes hate of any kind) under circumstances!!!

Morning everyone,

We know we're a day into June already but on 22nd June 2026, it's windrush day. This year it is the 78th anniversary of the arrival of the windrush generation at Tilbury Docks in 1948.

Our grandparents came over from Jamaica in the 1950s, so although they have now passed on, we honour their memory because without them we wouldn't have existed.

So therefore through the month of June (of course black history month in October too), we'll be celebrating the anniversary of this special day (even beyond the 22nd June).

Let us know anything you want to ask in the comments or anything you already know and we'll get a discussion going.

Did you know that last week was knife crime awareness week. This week runs from 18th - 24th May and happens on a yearly basis.

As knife crime happens regularly, there is the rise of amnesty bins that have been produced recently.

These bins as everyone has seen allow of knives to be dropped in, there are normally an abundance of knives, machetes etc in these bins.

This week creates awareness of the dangers of carrying knives, not only on the wider public but on the individual themselves, while educating people of any age included.

In our opinion, we think that this should carry awareness right throughout the year as it is such an important piece of news to be educated upon.

We'll end on that note.

Morning all,

The ministry of justice recently posted about their 'biggest overhaul to the youth justice system'.

These were to:

1) Intervene earlier
2) Modernise the system
And 3) to tackle the root cause of offending.

Now offending can be caused from anything such as bullying, having problems at home etc etc but each offender is different and no two are the same.

Statistically, 8 in 10 adults commit their first offence as children. These can be petty or serious. Which is why they are now apparently investing £15.3 million into programmes to stop children falling into crime.

Do we think this will work?

No, you can invest as much money as you want into these programmes but if you don't keep chipping away and educating them on a daily, weekly, fortnightly or monthly basis it won't solve anything.

Now we're not saying this will happen overnight,

Of course it won't, children, young people and families (as well as the wider community) need time to adjust, to learn and to nurture, while tackling these problems as early as possible.

To finish we'll leave these facts:

Crime can be acted upon because of trauma, this trauma can be introduced in childhood and acted upon later in life.

Trauma is not always silent, it can be the loudest thought in the room, it can be carried like a bubble or a balloon that can eventually burst.

Lewis will now be resting for the day ahead as he was up celebrating Arsenal last night.

Good morning everyone,

We've been quiet on here recently, as we've been so busy behind the scenes but we're on a NEWSLETTER ekkkkk!!!

The newsletter is by a company called Epic entrepreneurs CIC. At Epic they support young people that are starting a business or have a business idea. These young people range from the age of 14-25.

It's a three month programme that is completely free and all online. They offer coaching, skills and mentoring and their work is driven by ambition.

So if you're a young person aged 14-25 with a business idea and have had a different time in life and have any of the following superpowers such as being in the care system, being neurodivergent or displaced background. Reach out to them we've tagged them in the picture to have a look into.

From,
