One year on from Scotland’s UNCRC Incorporation, Highlands children’s rights and participation group are delighted to share this resource.
Too often capacity myths prevent children from participating in issues that directly impact on them… meet Callum and Mungo!
16 Jul 2025
The UNCRC supports children’s rights to give consent, to be consulted & to complain
But often adult myths about their capacity get in the way
@JoChamberlain83 and I researched with children what they think of this and what might help
Some resulting resources to share! 🧵 1/4

We asked children & young people what they made of common adult myths about their capacity - this one got some strong reactions, and great ideas for creating some resources
The adventures of Mythical Mungo and Capacity Callum begin! Which one are you?

In case you missed it - we recently published a literature review, aiming to assist those interested in developing Bairns' Hoose in Scotland and beyond.
Written by Marianiki Vlachou, Viki Sebhelyi, and @AddyAdelaine , this review draws on international insights and good practice examples from across North America and Europe, including services that fully or partially adopt the Barnahus model and standards.
Read the report here: cycj.org.uk/wp-content/uploa…
ALT White text against a teal blue background reads: Informing Bairns' Hoose implementation in Scotland: a literature review with an image of a white house with smoke circles coming out of the chimney and a cut out heart shape in the centre, the CYCJ logo in white in the top right hand corner

Well done to everyone involved @LouKinnear
This has been a fantastic piece of work, well worth a read. The children were involved in every detail, right down to selecting which articles of the UNCRC should be included. Well done to everyone involved đź‘Ź

Great turnout today for @G_Armstrong21 presentation on Street Belonging. Good to hear how we can make a difference for vulnerable young people. Key message to include girls in violence prevention work too. Fits with our reimagining justice plan @CYCJScotland and YAT đź‘Ť.
