Today's Spring Statement was a chance for UK Government to support children and young people with cancer with the extra costs that come with a diagnosis. Our CEO @rachelkirby.bsky.social shares her reflections on how the statement missed the mark for the families we support. 👉 bit.ly/4hP8PYr

A thoughtful discussion at parliament today on the findings of this report. I was struck by Minnal (a lived experience speaker) who said that just fixing the ‘basics’ like communication would be transformative. I’ve loved watching this unique method of engagement unfold over the last few months.

Earlier this week @fleuranderson.bsky.social met with us @younglivesvscancer.bsky.social about the needs of young cancer patients in Northern Ireland and across the UK- they often cross borders for care so systems need to flex for unique needs but also consistency of care across the UK is vital.

19 million @bsky.app users? Better make sure they all know about the handy alt text reminder! 🫡 Go to Settings > Accessibility and make sure "Require alt text before posting" is toggled on. We love that accessibility is such a priority here.

A screenshot of Bluesky's alt text reminder options. At the top of the page it says "Accessibility" then underneath there are two options for "Alt text" which are "Require alt text before posting" and "Display larger alt text badges." The first of these is toggled to "on." There's also a "Media" option which is "Disable autoplay for videos and GIFs."
