Welcome to the age of giving a damn. We want to make social action a normal part of growing up for all under 25s to create a #socialpurpose driven society.

This is a tragedy and part of why I helped set up @GenChange. The good news is: young people today care more about social issues than any generation before them, are more likely to volunteer, and want social purpose careers. There is a future here. unherd.com/2019/12/why-do-br…

Read and digest. This makes absolute sense to me. – at Sheffield, England
Very pleased with this superb report from the Impact Accelerator. It sets out some powerful recommendations for funders that could change the game when it comes to increasing the quality of youth services. Highlights to follow... youthimpact.uk/uploads/1/1/4…

This thread, and the report, are good food for thought for funders of #youthsocialaction this Friday. There's a potential framework for funders to use in thinking about where to target their support, and what it should be backing. Thanks @YouthImpactUK and @DdotReed

Really interesting insights from the Impact Accelerator- thinking about how we can spread best practice in youth social action. What do you think? #iwill #quality #impact xitter.cf/DdotReed/status/119488…

Throughout history, children have won the future that adults failed to create. Claudette Colvin, Iqbal Masih, Malala Yousafzai, Greta Thunberg. Once again, it's time for older generations to follow the lead of the young. Join the #ClimateStrike

Really exciting to be here at a @founderscoders workshop developing an idea from our Hackathon to create a web platform that helps educators to quickly find quality local social action projects. #systemschange

So pleased that the fantastic Impact Accelerator developed by @GenChange has now transferred to @YouthImpactUK - it will enable them to expand it across the youth sector and is such a great legacy for our collaboration @Ttall @michael_lynas @Jennie_online @matthyde @Lotte_IWill

This is such a heartwarming story about how @NCS participants (16 and 17 year olds) have made such a positive difference in local communities (I am a patron so not unbiased) youtube.com/watch?v=hGX8cLJ2…

Agree with some of this but to do it properly you do have to invest - volunteering is never free and young people need support throughout. The infrastructure is there with @NCS and there's an opportunity with a new PM and CSR to expand its remit. #nationalservice

The UK desperately needs an extended form of Citizen Service. How many young people would sign up to install solar panels, insulate homes, care for the elderly or mentor in schools - if given the chance? xitter.cf/Will_Tanner/status/114…
Our first Insights Report for the #iwill Fund is published! In it we share early findings from the 9 youth organisations that have taken part in our Impact Accelerator scheme. Read it at the link below, and tell us what you think: youthimpact.uk/publications/…
