This year marks the midway point since Scotland made @ThePromiseScot to care-experienced children and young people. #babies are powerless and need us to fight for them. Getting it right for our most vulnerable citizens must become Scotland’s number one investment priority.

We visited pupils at #alvaprimaryschool with @planetyouthscot this week to raise awareness of #childrensmentalhealthweek. The children had fun using tree drawings to help them identify the things they are good at and enjoy doing and which help them to look after themselves.

Many thanks to @Glasgow_Times for raising awareness of #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek. Our Childline counsellors support children with mental health related issues every day. Children can call Childline on 0800 1111 or visit
