Campaign with confidence during this election period. We have the opportunity to re-set the relationship with the new incoming government and our elected representatives and to campaign for the future we want and need to see.
The general election is now upon us. 4 July will see the nation go to the polls to decide on the next government in Westminster

@JaneIdeCEO talks about the uniqueness of the sector, and the expertise it brings to the table.
ALT Our sector is equal but different to other sectors, depth of experience and knowledge that comes from within communities. Invest in that relationship with the sector. See civil society as a trusted partner.

Resignation en masse of Sutton PCF due to breakdown of rel’ship with the LA is a sorry state; loss of peer support for carers; loss of independent voice for #SEND families to Ofsted & CQC; loss of valuable lived experience needed for coproduction. Worse outcomes for all…

Another PCF resigning because they can no longer work with their council (@SuttonCouncil). It’s a real shame that the attitude towards parents seems to getting more and more negative right now through no fault of our own @GillianKeegan @david4wantage @helenhayes_
