Making sure every child grows up in a safe and loving family environment is personal to me. It is great to be working with @BarryKeoghan on reforming childrenโ€™s social care around the world.

In 2022 I shared my goal to read 25 books in the year on here. It was: - a beautiful way to start conversations - a useful tool for accountability - a grand source of recommendations - a way to remember what I read So, Iโ€™m doing it again in 2024! Recommendations welcome ๐Ÿ™

25. Leading with a Limp by Dan B. Allender. A challenging read about embracing our weaknesses in leadership, vulnerability and trust. Also an interesting final chapter about the leadership types; King, Priest and Prophet.

I probably didnโ€™t enjoy this as much as Babel by @kuangrf - but I think thatโ€™s personal preference for fantasy rather than overall quality.
23. Yellowface by @kuangrf A fun, modern and smart book with a neat concept. Listened to this in about 3 chunks with some long work journeys and it was good company.

Great to hear @Keir_Starmer mention care leavers in his speech and set out his commitment to tackle homelessness - 1 in 3 face homelessness within 2 years of leaving care so this is a really welcome step.
