The Inclusion Ambassadors report echoes what REPAIR families experience daily: inconsistent support, unclear communication and systems that rely on individual goodwill, not rights. These issues are not isolated; they are structural. Young people have spoken. It’s time to act.

Parents are as excluded as their children and young people. We aren’t included in the discussion despite the legislation.the mood is low after yesterday. Without changing the fundamentals of environmental and training nothing will change for our families. More and more are going to be excluded.
223,000 neurodivergent children and young people in Scotland can’t access their legal right to an education is the white text. This sits beside a stick AI image of a young person in visible distress with their head on hands. We can’t see their face and they have a hood up. A school bag sits beside them.

It’s Young Carers Action Day. Here is my daughter at the Scottish Parliament last year. The theme for 2026 is 'Fair Futures for Young Carers', a call to ensure every young carer has the same chances to learn, grow and thrive as their peers. #YoungCarersActionDay

Unpaid carers are at breaking point. Our new #CostOfCaring report reveals a system stretched to its limit – and it’s carers who are paying the price. 52% are caring for longer hours 49% have cut back on essentials like food and heating 42% say their health has worsened
A person opens an almost empty kitchen cupboard, highlighting the text: "49% of carers said they’ve cut back on essentials such as food, heating, clothing, and transport costs." The logo "Carers UK" is in the top left corner.
