Inscape House School knows how to throw a Christmas party! Over the last week of term, students got to meet Father Christmas, get temporary tattoos, raise funds for the school and more. 

Our Campaigns Manager Lucy reflects on the new regulations introduced by the government this month and the impact of legalising the use of ‘unregulated accommodation’ for 16 and 17 year olds.

Together Trust students welcomed visitors all the way from North-Pole for a fun day out in the school garden. 

Last Sunday, hundreds of local bikers dressed as Father Christmas and his helpers rode to the Together Trust campus in Cheadle to deliver presents they had donated to raise a smile on the faces of the children the charity supports.

We know Christmas can be the loneliest time of the year for children in care and care leavers. That’s why, when this year’s much-awaited John Lewis & Partners Christmas ad was released this month, we were thrilled that its story was one so close to our hearts: a foster carer and child’s journey.

Yesterday, on Children’s Rights Day, the #KeepCaringTo18 campaign group launched a call to action for 16 and 17 year-olds living in England.

The campaign group wants to know what care looks and feels like to 16- and 17-year-olds to help influence government policy. The views of all 16- and 17- year-olds are sought no matter where and with whom they live.

It’s November, so it’s time to celebrate Occupational Therapy Week from 7 - 13 November this year. This year, the Royal College of Occupational Therapists (RCOT) have created a theme about ‘lifting up your everyday’.

In 2018, Nathaniel Yates, a former student of Stockport College, started a grassroots campaign with the aim of making local train stations more accessible for all, including people with physical and invisible disabilities.

The young people we support are at the heart of everything we do. So we sent Alice and her favourite teachers to the Stockport Business Awards, where we were nominated for best Not For Profit!
