On World Day of Social Justice, we stand with parents and carers who are too often unheard, misunderstood, and left to fight systems alone. Social justice means fairness, belief, and support, not constant battles. You shouldn’t have to do this alone. 💙

Hugely important this bill is passed. @bethmorrison.bsky.social

We need #calums law. Teachers require statutory training to come in line with other professions like nursing. Restraint and seclusion are damaging practices illegal in other settings like nursing homes for very good reasons. Children need same protections in law. @bethmorrison.bsky.social

PABSS - PABSS REPORT 2025

A 3 year old wee girl was restrained in a nursery because she did not want to come inside after "playtime" was over. She was sent home covered in bruises.

The head said "You have to accept that when a child is restrained, there will be injuries!"

The PABSS Report 2025

Behind every incident of restraint and seclusion is a child. A family. A story that deserves to be heard.

#CalumsLaw #PABSSReport2025

Important piece in yesterday's Sunday Post showing why legislation on restraint is so crucial.

We've been calling for statutory provision for 5+ years now. Good to see the govt (finally) offering its support.

Huge credit to the parent campaigners who've driven this. @bethmorrison.bsky.social
