Book Synopsis Young Lives, Big Ambitions by : Anne Longfield
Book excerpt: Society is failing too many children. But we can do better. A difficult home life. A missed diagnosis. A disrupted education. Falling in with the wrong crowd. Every year thousands of children fall through the cracks in our society and become victims of a destructive cycle that ends in exploitation, violence, and lost life chances. As Commissioner for Children in England, Anne Longfield CBE witnessed the devastating effects of this cycle as vulnerable young people were failed by systems too underfunded and overstretched to protect them. Young Lives, Big Ambitions is an action plan to fix our broken system and give every young person the chance to succeed.
