    Hold The Phone: What age should children be on social media?📱

    Listen to a star-studded panel discuss growing evidence of how social media is harming children and young people, and what government, schools, mental health professionals, and civil society can do together to address this national challenge. This event came at a timely moment as the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill proceeded through the House of Lords, providing a space to examine the case for raising the age of access to social media, and to consider how policy can better safeguard the wellbeing and development of children. The CSJ report, Change the Prescription, published last year, found that change is required to protect children from exposure to harmful online content, which can have a detrimental impact on their mental health. Read it at centreforsocialjustice.org.uk. Panel: Lord Nash, Former Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Schools Sophie Winkleman, actress, charity patron, and campaigner Simon Bailey CBE, QPM, DL, Chair of the International Policing and Public Protection Research Institute Dr Becky Foljambe, NHS GP Partner and founder of Health Professionals for Safer Screens Jonathan Hinder MP, Pendle and Clitheroe

    🏠Taking Housing First from Pilot to Policy, with Andy Burnham, Steve Rotheram and Steve Morgan CBE

    On the eve of Labour Party Conference, the CSJ are taking a plan to end rough sleeping to Liverpool - Housing First. The CSJ first came across the Housing First model in 2016, having engaged with a local project in Camden, which in turn was inspired by the Finnish Housing First model. The CSJ then visited Finland to develop a focused proposal for England, subsequently taking then Housing Secretary Sajid Javid on an official visit to Helsinki to view the impact of the approach on the ground. The project convinced the government to allocate £28 million for the three city-region pilots and to build the evidence base for the effectiveness of Housing First in England and how it should be rolled out more widely. In 2017, the CSJ published its first report, Housing First, followed by a larger paper, Close to Home, which outlined how the government could scale up Housing First across England. Following the success of the city-region pilots, the CSJ's latest report, No Place Like Home, lays out the steps that Government should take to put an end to rough sleeping. By rolling out Housing First nationally, and doubling the number of places available, we believe we can help the most chronic rough sleepers out of the cycle of homelessness. Alongside Chief Exec Andy Cook and Senior Researcher Josh Nicholson, we are joined by four champions of our proposals: - Andy Burnham, Mayor of Greater Manchester - Steve Rotheram, Metro Mayor of the Liverpool City Region - Steve Morgan, Founder of the Steve Morgan Foundation and founder and former Chair of housebuilders Redrow - Matthew Torbitt, Senior Fellow at the CSJ.

    Time To Overhaul the Pupil Premium?

    New CSJ analysis in our latest report, Unequal Returns, show that despite despite tens of billions invested in Pupil Premium (PP), outcomes for disadvantaged pupils remain deeply uneven. Some schools are seeing their attainment gap widen. Our report argues that the PP funding model must evolve into a smarter, more precise system – one that better reflects the realities of modern disadvantage and delivers real impact for the children it was created to help. To discuss its findings and the future of PP, we will be joined by: Sir Trevor Phillips OBE, broadcaster and former EHRC Chair Sir Kevan Collins, lead non-executive board member at the Department for Education Professor Lee Elliot Major OBE, UK's first Social Mobility Professor and co-creator of the Pupil Premium Toolkit Emma Bonnin, Headteacher of Pakeman Primary School.

    Fatherlessness: The Issue Westminster won't talk about?

    No one in Westminster is talking about fatherlessness, but our Alliance of 700+ small charities tell us it’s a huge issue. That’s why our star-studded CSJ team came together to discuss it in the latest episode of Beyond Westminster. It’s part of a new podcast series we’re launching, led by the voices of small charities. Informed by daily visits to our Alliance network, we’ll be taking hot-takes from the frontlines and bringing them right to the heart of SW1 by debating them on our podcast. Kicking off this series is a CSJ Alliance charity in Darlington called Parents and Children Together North East (PACTNE), who provide supported housing for families at risk of losing their children to the care system. They say fatherlessness has had the biggest impact on their work. Fatherlessness was also identified as one of the areas driving the crisis facing boys and young men in Lost Boys: State of the Nation. Find out more at lostboys.org.uk. Host Andy Cook, Chief Executive Guests Ed Davies, Research Director Mercy Muroki, Development Director Joe Shalam, Policy Director
