Closing

Be part of our movement for change. We are excited to announce that we are seeking a board of trustees to support Each and Every Child through the next step in its development as a new independent charitable organisation - Each and Every Child SCIO. Over the past 6 years, Each and Every Child has supported individuals and organisations across Scotland to change how they communicate about care and care experience in order to challenge unhelpful assumptions, stereotypes and mindsets around care and care experience that can further stigma and discrimination. In partnership with FrameWorks UK, we have shared insights into how we can effectively shift public ways of thinking, countering unhelpful and stigmatising mindsets and building support for solutions. This is our next step. As a new, independent charity we aim to support the use of in-depth framing research and robustly evidenced insights combined with our experience of building relationships, providing advice, facilitating conversations and mobilising action to extend this work to other social issues impacting people’s lives. We will also ensure that our work to shift narratives around care experience continues to strengthen and adapt to new challenges.
