Congratulations to the Lionesses, you’ve done it again! 🏆⚽️ Your incredible win at the UEFA Women’s EURO 2025 isn’t just a victory on the pitch, it’s a message to every young person that dreams really can come true.

From hard work and determination to those nail‑biting penalties, you’ve shown that with resilience, belief and teamwork, anything is possible. Here’s to inspiring the next generation to aim high, work hard and never stop believing.

📱 Let’s Talk About Social Media Safety – Together 💬

Social media is a big part of life for many children and young people - it can be a great space to share, connect and have fun. But just like in the real world, it’s important to stay safe online too.

To the young people:
You don’t need to be perfect online. If something makes you feel uncomfortable or unsure - whether it’s a message, a video, or a challenge – it’s always okay to pause, say no, or talk to someone you trust. You deserve to feel safe, respected, and supported.

To the parents and carers:
You don’t need to be tech experts to support your child. Keeping open, regular conversations going about their online world can make a big difference. Ask questions, listen without judgement, and let them know they can come to you - no matter what.

We’re all learning as we go, and we’re stronger when we work together.

💙 Let’s keep the conversation going.
