I am determined to give every child the opportunities they deserve, and kinship carers play a crucial role in delivering this.
Pleasure to meet with Kinship in Houghton to discuss their #ValueOurLove campaign and reiterate my commitment to kinship carers.
At the Department for Education, we recently announced the single biggest investment made by government in kinship care to date, a £40 million package to trial a new Kinship Allowance. This could transform the lives of vulnerable children by reducing disruption to their early years, so they can focus on school and building friendships.
