Why we need a New Social Covenant. In this episode Steve’s guest and expert witness is Danny Kruger, Conservative MP, and founder of the New Conservatives group.
“Danny Kruger MBE began his career working for a think tank and then serving as David Cameron's chief speechwriter in 2006. He left his role two years later to focus on Only Connect, a youth crime prevention charity he co-founded with his wife Emma. Elected as an MP for Devizes in 2019, he was tasked by Prime Minister Boris Johnson in 2020 to propose ways to maintain community spirit amid the COVID pandemic. Kruger suggested a ‘new social covenant’, which he described as ‘the mutual commitment by citizens, civil society, businesses and the state, to work together for the common good of all.”
– Steve Chalke

He has worked in journalism and in politics and was speech writer for former Prime Minister David Cameron, Political Secretary to former Prime Minister Boris Johnson, and PPS at the Department for Levelling Up and Communities. With his wife, Emma, Kruger set up his own charity called Only Connect in 2006, working with those in prison or recently released, to reduce reoffending. He also set up and ran the West London Zone for Children and Young People, coordinating the work of schools, councils, and charities with young people at risk.

Tony has been my friend for 40 or more years and why he chose to befriend me I haven't got a clue, but the benefit is all mine. I'm sure you'll enjoy his”

Trust is the glue of life: Trust in government and its statutory services is an essential part of social cohesion. But in recent years, continued revelations of mismanagement, bad behaviour, poor governance, scandals and cover ups in Whitehall and town halls have soured trust. How do we restore it? In this episode Steve’s guest and expert witness is Anne Longfield CBE, former Children’s Commissioner for England. In part one Steve sets out his eighth principle, in part two Anne responds.
“This is my conversation with my guest and expert witness Anne Longfield CBE, Chair of the Commission on Young Lives, and the former Children's Commissioner for England. We talk together about Principle 8: Trust is the glue of life. It was brilliant talking with Anne, because I've admired Anne for so many years before I knew her. I've watched her work in her role as Children's Commissioner for England and before that as she worked alongside the Labour government years ago to introduce the idea of Sure Start and children's centres working with young parents and young children, creating for them a better future. She is a brilliant thinker and strategist. You'll enjoy what she has to say.”

It's brilliant that Mark is now the CEO, the leader of The Children's Society, which is born out of the Church of England and embedded with wonderful values doing extraordinary work around the country in poor communities everywhere to change round opportunities for children ,and to bring to them a different future.”

You can judge the wisdom of any society by the investment it makes in its children: The importance of taking a trauma-informed approach to supporting children. In this episode Steve’s guest and expert witness is Dr Celia Sadie. In part one Steve sets out his fifth principle, in part two Dr Celia responds.
“This is my conversation with my guest and expert witness Dr. Celia Sadie, clinical psychologist and Director of Care and Wellbeing at Oasis Restore, England's first ever secure school based in Rochester, in Kent. We talk together about Principle 5: You can judge the wisdom of any society by the investment it makes in its children. It was brilliant talking with Celia, because I know that she understands the revolution that we need to go through if we're to give every young person in our society the opportunity they deserve and allow them to reach their full potential.”

“Steve Parish is the co-owner and chairman of Crystal Palace FC. We talk together about Principle 4: Without a vision, the people perish. I love my conversation with Steve because I've supported Crystal Palace all my life. I've supported them through thick and thin. And I've seen the extraordinary work that Steve has done to turn around the fortunes of the club. We have spent the last 10 years consecutively in the Premier League. It's a miracle, it's a wonder, and I wanted to find out more about the vision that drives Steve forward.”

You go faster alone, but you can go further together: Why ‘The Big Society’ failed and how we can make it work again. In this episode Steve’s guest and expert witness is Marvin Rees, the Mayor of Bristol. In part one Steve sets out his third principle, in part two Marvin responds.
“This is my conversation with my guest and expert witness Marvin Rees, the Mayor of Bristol. We talk together about Principle 3: You go faster alone, but you can go further together. I really enjoyed my conversation with Marvin because through the lockdowns, through the pandemic, through COVID, I had the opportunity of working with Marvin in Bristol where Oasis runs a number of schools, and I watched a man who knew how to build a team do exactly that. Bristol is an incredible city. A city that's learned that you may go faster alone, but you get a lot further together.”
– Steve Chalke

Where there’s ruin, there’s hope: There is no “system”, just a collection of different systems which are not joined up, are top-down and bureaucratic and fixated on process. Statutory services are ill-fitting and disempower the staff working within them. We need a better, more joined-up, integrated and holistic approach. In this episode Steve’s guest and expert witness is Hilary Cottam, social entrepreneur.
“Hillary is a social entrepreneur and author of a brilliant book called Radical Help. We talk together about Principle 2: Where there's ruin,there's hope. I loved our conversation because Hilary is someone who stimulates my thinking around what it means to build authentic community empowering individuals rather than robbing them of the opportunity to be involved.”
– Steve Chalke
