Representatives from Cliff Edge will be at Stormont tomorrow.
We encourage all MLAs to support the Opposition Day motion to remove the two-child limit.
This policy is a key contributor to rising rates of child poverty in Northern Ireland.

Today marks an unhappy birthday – the 7th anniversary of the two-child limit to benefit payments.
As part of the @endchildpoverty Coalition we have a message for Department for Work and Pensions – one they can’t ignore – it’s time to end the unfair sibling penalty.

Thanks Channel 4 News for covering our stunt today to mark the 7th unhappy birthday of the two-child limit to benefit payments.

Thanks Save the Children UK for joining us today to hand in our unhappy birthday card, for a birthday we wont be celebrating - 7 years of the two-child limit.
For seven years this policy has had a profound impact on the poorest families, pushing them into poverty, it must be scrapped
I love to celebrate birthdays but this is one we can never celebrate. And it still continues to exist, pulling hundreds of thousands of children into poverty #twochildlimit End Child Poverty

Earlier today we were with End Child Poverty outside the DWP, marking the unhappy birthday of the two child limit. Watch why we are campaigning on Channel 4 News
Tomorrow is the 7th birthday of the 2 child limit to benefit payments. This cruel policy pushes families into poverty and must be scrapped.
We took this message to Department for Work and Pensions in a way that can't even ignored. A giant unhappy birthday card.
Our Campaigns Officer, Evangeline, visited Department for Work and Pensions today as part of the End Child Poverty coalition to mark the upcoming 7th anniversary of the two-child limit.
This cruel, unfair policy plays a huge part in child poverty. We can't let it see another birthday #AllKidsCount
Each year this abhorrent policy is in place, more and more children and families are being plunged into poverty.
It was unworkable 7 years ago, and remains so today. The two-child limit must be scrapped. ❌
