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. 

For our second episode we are joined by Voices of Experience members Jimmy Paul, Director of WEAll Scotland and Oisin King, MSYP for Who Cares? Scotland and politics student at the University of Glasgow. In this episode, Jimmy and Oisin join Claire O’Hara, Each and Every Child Programme Director, to discuss what it is like to use the framing recommendations when speaking about care as someone with lived experience. The guests reflect on what it is like to speak about how powerful the framing recommendations can be when speaking about their experience of care, or speaking about changes that are needed in how we provide care for Scotland’s children and young people.
