Anne Longfield congratulates Dame Rachel de Souza on her appointment as the next Children’s Commissioner for England:
“The role of Children’s Commissioner is an honour and a privilege – holding to account, without fear or favour, those who make decisions affecting children’s lives, and shining a light on the many different issues facing children today. I want to congratulate Rachel on her appointment to this fantastic job and wish her the very best as she prepares to start her term in office, in March.”
