    Every social worker or care provider should have to watch this as part of their training.
    Learn from someone who actually knows what he is talking about, having been on the receiving end of so called 'care'.

    I knew Lemn many years ago, when he was still in children's homes. When he was till known as Norman--and worse. He was always a very special individual. What he has done in bringing to light the failings of the care system, and in helping others, has been absolutely phenomenal

    The awesome ripple effect of people collectively ''getting busy'' so to make a positive change. Love Lemn X

    Read "My name is Why". This man is amazing. He touched me so deeply I can't find the words to explain it.

    Just read his book My name is why... very shocking for me on how he was treated by his Foster parents.... and then being in care. He was failed by the system. God bless all kids in care in the UK

    When i hear someone of my past talking through me to my children, i thank God that i realise more, how much we all fail now and then, while meaning well.
    May we all learn more from each others failures than we blame.
    May we admit more to ourselves the wrongs we do & keep striving for doing right the next time; Than we say SORRY'S and keep making the SAME mistakes.
    May we all see ourselves No BETTER than the other; NOR WORSER than the other; But be occupied by good thoughts in our 💞 and minds.
    That we do more good because whats the 💖 is full of, comes out.
    In Jesus name🙏amen.

    If you realize that Xmas is pagan then perhaps it would not matter that much.
