S1 Ep3: Bringing In Context and Speaking About Solutions

Each and Every Child is an initiative that is focussed on using robustly tested framing techniques to create a new narrative around care, one that shifts public attitudes and increases understanding about care experience and the care system. Based on research into how the Scottish public thinks about care experience, and how care experience is discussed by media, individuals and organisations across Scotland, eight framing recommendations were produced to change how we speak about care experience. The recommendations have been tested to tackle stigma and discrimination, whilst building support for improvements to the care system to help Keep The Promise.  
  
Voices of Experience have been central to the work of the initiative from the beginning and throughout. The Voices of Experience Reference group is made up of six individuals with diverse backgrounds and experiences of care. The group has influenced the whole of the initiative, including coproducing work for people with lived experience of care.  
  
This podcast series will focus on the voices of people with lived experience in using the framing recommendations, the impact of sharing stories or experiences and how organisations and workers can fully support people when sharing stories. 

On the third episode of the Each and Every Child podcast we are joined by Chelbi Hillan, student of Dentistry at the University of Glasgow; Roseanna Campbell, Participation Officer Care Experienced Young People at Edinburgh City Council; and Oisín King, MSYP for Who Cares? Scotland and student of Politics and Social and Public Policy at the University of Glasgow. In this episode Chelbi, Oisín and Rosie, all members of the Each and Every Child Voices of Experience reference group, join host Claire O’Hara to give a deeper dive into two of the framing recommendations that are important to consider when speaking from experience of care – bringing in context to stories and speaking clearly about solutions.
