It's really satisfying & empowering to read, see or listen to the fruits of everyone's labour. I am of course referring to everything we do collectively but more recently the briefing on UC & it's impacts on the mental health of lone parents (of which I am one myself), also the 'Listening to all Voices' was good to revisit because I had forgotten about taking part in the recording so I was positively surprised to hear myself speaking!

In my humble opinion wish that Universal Credit had never been thought of. Not as though it was ever likely to be a good idea from the get go. Wish it could be replaced or we could return to legacy benefits or something else much better for everyone.

Nevertheless, Bravo everyone. I applaud each & everyone of you for your involvement no matter what.
