"National Care Leavers Month comes once a year—but our stories, truths, and strength deserve attention every day." That's Salma's message, one of our Lifelong Links Ambassadors, who joined Barnardo's in Parliament this week to push for better support for care leavers #NCLM
We recently visited HMP Brixton to record with @prisonradiouk.bsky.social on care leavers' rights.
The interview's been broadcast across prisons in England throughout National Care Leavers Month.
Huge thanks to Prison Radio for having us!

It was moving to hear care-experienced young people speak so passionately about their experiences and what needs to change yesterday, and it was a great feeling to share these stories with policymakers who can help improve the care system.
