#CEHM22 🌸 Today is International Care Experienced Day of Remembrance, marking the end of Care Experienced History Month. Please share the below symbol of remembrance of Care Experienced people to spark a global conversation. @whocaresscotland? #UntoldStories @HistoryOfCare
As a result of oppression & systemic mismanagement of their lives, many Care Experienced people haven’t had the opportunity to meet their full potential. This symbol was created by Care Experienced people, to commemorate Care Experienced people throughout global history.
We're taking part in the International Care Experienced Day of Remembrance. Care Experienced people deserve to be remembered. Today, we're reflecting on the legacy and impact of Care Experienced communities and individuals across the world. #CEHM #ICEDR
